Santa, Here We Come

the amount of pictures in my posts has increased substantially.  this post is no different.  i can't help it.  i just keep thinkin, "blog book, blog book, blog book" so i have to add them all.  cause let's face it, scrapbooking ain't no where in my future.

a couple of days ago we went to visit santa.  we've gone to see the big man ever since jack was a year and a half.  it's just fun.  i love the look on the boys faces when they're on santa's lap.  they refer to santa's as "this santa" or "that santa" as opposed to "the santa"  make sense?  it's like they don't believe he's the real one, but they're still enamored.  they don't even really talk about santa.  i asked finn the other night if he believed cause i just wasn't sure, and he assured me he did :)

"finn, do you believe that santa is real?"
"yes.  he is real"
"ok buddy"

we found "this new santa" at a landscaping place.   it was pretty sweet.  for $5 there was popcorn, apple cider, santa (obviously), a wind quartet and two live reindeer.  you could also make an ornament, but we "couldn't find that station."

I am way behind on my blogging, so don't judge, but I write lots of posts too while thinking "blog book".
