Visit to Santa

As you can see, I have not blogged lately. I can't seem to keep up with the pace of life plus the holidays. It seems too busy so today I simplified things a little. We decided that instead of doing the mall "Santa", we would just go to the Publix across the street from our subdivision & see the Santa that was there instead. It ended up being a great decision because it wasn't crowded at all and Santa sat and talked with both the boys a good while. There was no crying kids, no line, no patience lost, and no wait. The Santa even had a really nice velvet suit on & he was really sweet to the boys. I got a really good picture that I am going to send in a Christmas card...I know...I didn't think I could get a good picture at a grocery store, but I did!! I took more pictures at home, but none of them seemed better than the great smiles santa got from them. This holiday season, my goal is to simplify my life and just focus on what is important. Kids don't really care where they see santa. Only we do.
