Scary Santa




I have, in vain, been trying to get a photo of Matthew on Santa's lap for Christmas. No such luck! At two years old, he is absolutely terrified of the man in red. Nolan sits quite nicely with the tubby elf, but I suspect that is because he can't move anywhere under his own power yet.


The Walmart Santa (free pictures!!) was a complete washout, and I have to agree that the guy WAS a little creepy. We have a picture of Nolan on his lap and Matthew by a Christmas tree nearby, sucking his thumb. That Santa had no free candy canes, so Matthew felt no incentive to get any closer than the garden department to the guy!


The Brigiotta's Greenhouse Santa was cool- real beard and the whole bit. AND he had candy canes. Matthew ventured close enough to snag a candy cane and then was out of there! It was too cold to get Nolan out of the bunting for a picture. Christmas cards this year may be doomed- I just can't get a good picture of the boys! Oh, well- we can keep trying. Maybe some Santa out there will have TONS of candy and not creep my son out.
