The Traditional Santa Photo 2008

 


Well we had a super busy weekend and it seemed to fly by but we got a lot done. Today we went to finish off some Christmas shopping and we saw Santa and he wasn't busy so we stopped to chat and ended up having the boys photo taken. Normally I dress them all up for the occassion but today this was not the case. It was just lucky that they happened to be in the same coloured shirt. So we had the Santa photo done. I don't know how many more years I will get Luke into a Santa photo as today he asked "do I have to smile?" and I replied "well what else are you going to do?" Luke had a really good chat with Santa and was probably a little too honest. He told him that he had a few improvements to make and Santa told him that he had a few weeks to improve it. Mum actually had a good chat with Santa and told him that the boys were mostly pretty good and that it was probably her high expectations that were the problem. Santa told me not to worry and that I had a few weeks to get that into order. Now as for my sister - Michelle who Santa recognised the other day and told us that he knew which list she was on - that is a real worry. I guess that Santa just knows who is Naughty and who is Nice (Nies). Shelly I want to go for our own Santa photo - I'm sure that you want to sit on Santa's knee again.

We had a good day and achieved a lot. Got most of the presents wrapped and the Christmas tree went up one day early - as I will be home late tomorrow. It is a busy time of the year. Only 3 weeks of school left - which is scary when I think about what I have to fit into those 3 weeks.

Hope that all is well in everyone's world. Donna looking foward to an update from you regarding the "Are we there yet?" weekend. Dan - Luke had a great suggestion when I told him that you had phoned about your recycling bin and that was to wait for this week and then steal the one that is out!! I like the way the child thinks and it scares me a little that he actually comes up with it faster than I do!!! Helene how is the potty training treating you???Not sure that I want to know all of the details. Bel- we have to seriously sit together and organise classes and who is teaching where.
Love to All

Stay away from santa. Everyone you go near gets led astray. I do not want to explain to my kids that chrismas has been cancelled because Relle took santa to the pub and lost him.
As for Luke's suggestion, I like the way that boy thinks. Hopefully they haven't already plastered their own street number all over it.
