Breakfast With Santa

We went to have breakfast with Santa this morning. I'm not sure how they can call it breakfast when they give you (each child) 2 donut holes and an ounce of juice. This year, they doubled the price from $5 per child to $10 so you would have thought they might give out a whole donut - but no. While it's still cheaper than getting a picture at the mall, I think there are plenty of free places around here to do it and we probably won't next year.

In the past, Ryan has been way too freaked out to go near any of the people there, especially Santa and tears were usually involved. This year, he was hesitant, but did sit on Mrs. Claus's lap, while Emma got off Santa's lap and ran back to me within a minute. Ryan got more comfortable with the other characters as time went on and eventually joined a group dancing with Frosty. Emma hung back, not sure what to make of anything and found that playing with the balloons was the most fun. Unfortunately, I think my thumb changed the setting on my camera, so the one with Santa was blurry (also could have been a 1 year old charging me). But here are a few of the pics.
