Santa's Lap

Every year about this time we visit Santa at Oxmoor Mall.  He is the greatest!  Kyle gives me the business about taking my own camera, but I'm never the only one in line with camera in hand.  And I didn't feel too bad about it this year because as soon as we got to the front the lady gave the the protocol for taking my own pictures.  My photos aren't as good, but at least it saves me 30 bucks.  The kids surprised us and Santa by asking for totally different toys than had been on their lists when we left the house.  Isabella asked Santa for a science crystal kit, Zachary wanted a mario chess game, and Vincent asked for a Latches puzzle board.  After our Santa shoot, I plopped the kids in front of the big Christmas tree to take a kid pic and some random dude offered to take a family picture.  It came out pretty nice too.
