Blue Santa

On Saturday we took Claire to see Blue Santa.  I knew this event was sponsored by the police department, but was unsure if anything else was different about this Santa.  Turns out, he was in a blue suit.

Claire wasn't terribly thrilled with Santa.  Though I'm sure it wouldn't have mattered if he'd been in a red suit...

The visit started with tears and a desperate hug around dad's neck.



It ended with her sitting on Santa's lap, but she was never thrilled about the situation.


Actually, looking at these pictures, Santa doesn't look all that thrilled either.  Must have been an off day for everybody!

    I think some of my very favorite pictures of the kids when they were little were of Santa lap-sitting. Sometimes Santa looks like he would rather have a root canal. Other times there are smiles, tears, or looks of awe/shock. Poor Claire looks like she doesn't know what the heck is going on here!

    Poor Claire! Jesenia hasn't seen Santa yet and I think I'll spare her this year. The first time Adrian saw Santa he wouldn't sit on his lap either! I didn't even manage to get a picture of that encounter. :)

    First of all, I've never heard of a blue Santa! Wonder where he found the suit...

    Poor little Claire! Omg, that face!

    The pictures of our baby are priceless! Just seeing her face makes me laugh out loud and brings tears of joy to my eyes. What a Christmas gift indeed!

    Our boys hated Santa despite years of trying to get them to sit on his lap without a flood of tears. They are 11 and still don't like Santa - except when they get presents from him... go figure?
