Dear Santa...

This year was another great year for visiting Santa.  The kids were so excited to see him to share what they wanted for Christmas.  Getting natural smiles out of them is another story but I'll take the fake smiles I got over screaming kids on Santa's lap.  Ben did give Santa quite a surprise though, I was trying to get them to smile and was standing to the side and said 'stinky feet' which usually gets the smiles going.  In response Ben yelled out "how 'bout poo-poo."  Then he realized that was Santa he just said potty talk in front of and was quite embarrassed and was forced snuggle in closer to Santa to hide his face for a moment or two.  We got back on track after that and got a nice picture to add to our collection.

Is it just me, or was this year's santa better than previous years? I liked the real beard.
