I realize it's been quite a while since I posted. We left town for Thanksgiving and I've just felt very, very busy since then. Not the I'm-having-so-much-fun kind of busy, more like the my-house-is-a-wreck-and-I'm spinning in-circles kind of busy. I seriously need to change that. So in the spirit of the holiday, and to preserve what little sanity I have left, we put our books away and went to visit Santa. And I gotta say, South Coast Plaza has a great looking Santa! Could be because we were the first kids of the day, but he seemed genuinely jolly.. twinkly eyes and all. He was really, really great and so sweet with the kids! I had to fight off the urge to sit on his lap, give him a hug, and ask for a new filter for my camera. We really try not to focus on Santa too much at Christmas time. But it is lovely to see such a sweet old man, who obviously loves children, spreading some holiday cheer.

How did they ever manage to get such a great picture with four normal wiggily kids! Gramma
My previous comment did not come out right! It sounds rather negative - it wasn't meant to be! Gramma
THEY didn't. I did. And can you believe they actually charged me 7$ to take a picture with my own camera?! Awww commercialism.
