Here Comes Santa Claus

We took Nick and Abby for photos w/ Santa over the weekend, and Nick was a kid on a mission. There was no way he was going to leave w/out letting the ol' fellow know what he wanted for Christmas. Surprisingly, he hasn't been all that stoked about writing a letter to Santa. He probably wanted to make sure the letter didn't get lost in the shuffle. He did really well, not shy at all about telling Santa what he wanted. You could tell he had it memorized. He rattled his list (of which included Super Why toys and a camera) and topped it off by saying he wanted a ride on the carousel. You could tell he was pretty pleased w/ himself. He was feeling so magnanimous that he allowed his little sister to be in the same photo with him. My favorite part was when he told us that the food court was the north pole and was a little confused when we told him it wasn't. We said that Santa makes special visits so that kids can tell him what they want. That seemed to satisfy him because he didn't argue after that.

Here are pictures w/ Santa from years past.
