Santa 2013

We haven't had much success with happy go lucky visits with Santa in the past. But we finally got the kid that will gladly sit with him!! You'll be able to tell from the (extremely-blurry-phone) pics below which one of our kids it is. One of our kids loves the dude and the other kid is firm on his opinion----not a fan (of his lap). The one that is not a fan has watched from afar and would rather 'send him an email' instead. He also states that 'maybe he'll be ready when he's six'.

The kiddo that is a fan has requested that he bring him 'a candy cane' and 'iron man socks'. He may very well be the only kid on the planet that has ever requested socks for Christmas.













I love how different our boys are from one another. I'm proud that the each stay true to their convictions. In this case, one makes for a much cuter photo op ;)

(Edited to add the following photo;)





This is the photo that was posted in our local paper. They did a full spread with every kid that sat with Santa. We thought perhaps being in the paper might be enough of a draw for Coop but we thought wrong.
