Logan was walking around all morning, saying " Santa, Santa!" I asked him if he wanted to go and see Santa and he said, uh-huh, yes. I thought a nice picture of the boys sitting with Santa would make a great Christmas card picture. So we got the boys all clean and dressed up more than usual, but not too over dressed, and headed down to see Santa. Logan was excited to see the really big tree, which he pointed to and called, Santa! Everything with Christmas decorations is related to Santa...according to LJ. Anywho, we stand in line for about 20 minutes, okay I stood in line for 20 minutes while James walked around with LJ & CT. It's finallly our turn to see Santa when the following sequence of events unfold.
1-CT refuses to take off his coat. 2- LJ freezes and clinches to Daddy. 3- CT walks right pass Santa, not even glancing his way. 4- LJ wants daddy to hold him, daddy tries to put LJ on Santa's lap, LJ starts screaming and clinging to daddy. 5-Cooper is helping himself to a candy cane. 6- Mommy gets out the camera to get any shot she can. 7- LJ is persuaded to give Santa a hug, while daddy is still holding him and mommy clicks the pix. (Which looked okay at the time, but was later discovered to be fuzzy.) 8- Cooper is persuaded to give Santa a high five.
9- We say thank you and we leave.
Oh and did I mention this all happened in less than 2 minutes?
Next year we'll go to see Santa from a distance. 
At least we got pictures with Santa at Cooper's party.
