Pics with Santa Claus...

...but not the REAL Santa Claus, of course! Each year we take a picture with Santa at the mall but Connor informed me this year that he was not the real Santa Claus.  You see, the REAL Santa visited him at his school last week and he knows the one at the mall is different because his beard was a couple of inches shorter than the one from school.  Hmmm... This kid doesn't miss a beat. 

And we've gone 5 years with NO tears AND smiles!!

So here is the "fake" Santa at the mall 2012:
