Christmas Pictures 2011

Me and Chris

All of us, this would be the winner for the christmas cards I'm mailing out.

Our Christmas pictures for 2011 came out great.  It took numerous tries because the kids kept making faces or weren't looking at the camera, but we finally got great photos.  

Santa Looks Different

I was caught off guard, and almost caught.

While organizing pics by theme (holidays, vacation, school pics, etc) I came across 2 Santa pictures (one from 2008 and the other from 2009) with my youngest son, Christopher, sitting on Santa's lap.  He wanted to see and so I showed him, and he asks, "Why does Santa look so much younger in this pic?" 

I was usure how to answer and responded with, "Good question.  Go ask Dad."

And then his dad said, "Yeah, Santa looks different every time I see him, too. When I was a kid he was Black."

Christopher said, "That's weird."

Santa Claus and Chris

 

I was so excited to plan this trip to the mall to have Christophr meet Santa Claus.  Christopher was so excited at first, and then we saw him sitting there.  Christopher started to withdraw.  He looked like he was going to cry and didn't want to talk or look at the camera.  Because Chris was looking to his left, Santa decided to look to his left, too.  

Even though Chris was scared, afterward he told me he liked Santa Claus.
