Our Motley Crew

The gals over at BabyBunching have been offering great holiday tips for parents of 'twiblings' (siblings close in age). One of them was how to make the picture-with-Santa trip easier. Reading that post reminded me of our trip to see Santa this year and I thought I'd share with you the comment I left for them. Oh and our photo of course:

"We totally lucked out and ran into santa by accident in an EMPTY mall the weekend after thanksgiving. the stars were aligned and we managed to get ALL THREE kiddies on santa's lap, facing the camera AND smiling. (pausing for applause) Besides the fact that we were totally unprepared for a photo and so that outfits are not a-la-Children's place, the only mishap was one bleeding 4 year-old finger thanks to the staple on the goody bag santa passed out.

Note to Santa: KIDS + SHARP OBJECTS = ALMOST ALWAYS BAD IDEA."

And so went this year's photo with Santa.

We are just all holiday'd out over here! Wait 'til you see the photos from the cookie party... (The suspense is killing you, I know).
