Dad, Bryant, and Casey took the Littles to see Santa Saturday morning. While that afforded Mom, Morn, and me a nice relaxing morning of coffee, breakfast, and decorating, the guys returned frazzled and wide-eyed. I think it was truly a team effort to get the kids to Santa, to the table, and to get breakfast from the buffet to the table. Oh yeah, and to then get the food into the children. Deer in the headlights, PTSS - Post Traumatic Santa Syndrome, hearding cats - there are so many phrases to describe it. And each one makes us laugh and laugh! My favorite is "Appreciation for all you do as a mother".
While it is a nearly unattainable feat to get a good picture of two children on Santa's lap, it is possible to get decent picture of one.
But you can't make him smile - no, sir!
Once home, it was time for a photo shoot on the steps. Now, why can't I get him to pose like this for a Christmas card picture? These are two of my favorite pics of them ever. They were having such a good time. Leeze is all about giving him kisses. I's not so sure Reeves is, but he tolerates them like the good little cousin he is.
And there was much rejoicing! They must have been laughing at Gams or Pops here.
Really, is there any better subject to take pictures of. I mean, sure, it's a lot of plaid, but I totally think their cuteness makes up for that!

I saw those men at the breakfast and herding cats is the right term :) I think the men were the cats though. They were on a mission: Santa. Check. table. check. breakfast. check. They "herded" from one thing to the next quite well!
PS - you're on a roll - keep posting :)
The kids are precious and the outfits are precious. Love it!
Very cute pictures. Thanks. They make us feel like we are not 9,000 miles away. Jimmy and Boo
