Santa and cute pic

We ventured to the mall today for some pictures at Sears and we decided to go ahead and knock out our Santa visit while we were there. We went to the Quail Springs Mall Santa versus the North Pole City one like the last two years. Who knows, we still have 20 days until Christmas, maybe we'll make it down there yet! I really like the Santa down there and the pictures they take are great too. And I LOVE the environment (the train, all the Christmas decorations...especially all the fragile, breakable ones...3 young kids will be so fun to entertain while we wait!). Although, I think Rielyn will be thouroughly confused about all the different Santas. She asked again today which one was the real one. I explained (like I did last year...I have to remember to keep my stories straight) that there are several different Santas at all the malls and such because the real Santa is so busy at the North Pole, he doesn't have time to sit at all the malls so he sends helper Santas that look a lot like him. Anyways, the first picture is right before we saw Santa...Kellan was not happy. Then when he sat on his lap, he could not stop staring at him...it was so funny! Ashlyn was super exited as you can tell from the pictures! And the last picture is one of the ones from Sears...it's my favorite! I have to admit...he is a CUTE baby!!
