Santa Claus is Comin'

We took all the kids (ours plus cousins Kevin and Ethan plus Stacey's kids) to the mall to see Santa with Grandma and Grandpa Barringer and they were champions. This is Luke's approximately 3rd time to see him this year, but as I didn't have any pictures yet (what?) I convinced him (by telling him Santa might forget what he wanted - still a car garage with cars and trucks) that he needed one more trip to see the jolly old man. This was really one of the best Santas I've ever seen.

Evelyn spent most of her time just staring at him with this sort of "what in the world are you?" face -- but no screaming. A little flash back to Luke 3 years ago (and just a few key weeks older). Aaaah, I can almost hear the wails. Wait, I can really hear wailing. Maybe I should go check that out . . .
