Visiting Santa

Will you take your twins to visit Santa?

My twin girls were always terrified of the jolly old elf. At the age of two, they actually ran screaming from him when he made an appearance at our community Christmas party. We never could get a good picture with both of them smiling. Instead, their expressions would range from mild discontent to all-out terror. Although we kept up the tradition for many years, it definitely wasn't a highlight of our holidays.

What about you? Will you make a trek to the mall and sit your twins on Santa's lap for a photo opportunity? Leave a comment and share your stories about this traditional holiday activity.

We took the boys and big sister to see Santa - it’s tradition. They didn’t seem too bothered by him. Mason sat on his knee and Logan sat propped up on one of his legs with big sister beside him for a picture and everyone did great! : ) Next year will probably be the year there’s a little bit of fear in them.
