Wordless | Santa Baby

We took the kiddos to see Santa this past weekend. And just as we pulled into the mall parking lot bright and early on Sunday morning, who pulls in next to us?

Santa. Yep. {He drives red Volvo. Just an FYI.}

So, while I anticipated another scene like this from not one, but both of my children...

{Carter & Santa 2009}

...it actually went 50% better than anticipated...

Santa1 2011

Brynn couldn't escape fast enough, while Carter happily sat on Santa's lap and told him everything he wanted for Christmas. He was a little upset when Santa didn't have all his presents wrapped and ready for him before we left though.

Someone is having trouble understanding this concept ;)

    This year gave us our first screaming kid with Santa pic.....I'm sure there will be many more ;)
    And I hope next year Brynn loves Santa as much as Carter seems to this year!

    So was Santa already dressed up as he got out of his Volvo? With pictures there is always one child who is happy and one who completely dislikes the man...you just never know who is it gonna be though :)

    Oh how I love this post!! I have a daughter a couple of weeks younger than Brynn so you don't know how good it makes me feel to see that Brynn didn't love Santa either :-)

    Brynn and Evelina even sported the same outfit in their Santa pics!!

    Is it weird that the picture with Brynn & Carter and Santa of course, instead of seeing a wreath on Santa's hat I saw a Starbucks logo?!? At first, I was all that's odd, humph, must be sponsored by Starbucks. I haven't had my coffee yet, can you tell?

    My best Santa photo features me on Santa's lap with #1 on my lap. I was about as big as Santa at the time. It is ridiculous.

    Cute story and picture. I love the part where your son is expecting the gifts right away.
    I have to say that is a pretty spiffy looking Santa.
    Thanks for the linky

    Precious! I love that Santa drives a red volvo. Upgraded from that sleigh, huh? E is going through this strange scared of strang men phase so I anticipate the Santa visit will be loud. And tearful.
