This was our Santa photo this year. I think I’ve only ever done two or three. The kids were not overly keen but I bribed them with a cafe visit after. But there was no way they would be doing it on their own! Can you tell by the big gap they left between them and Santa?

Chance was holding on to me for dear life!

I felt a bit sorry for Santa. I felt like he was being overly cautious not to touch the kids or to freak them out. He didn’t even ask what they wanted for Christmas! It was very much a snap and move on kind of photo.

Are there still happy Santas around or are they all too scared of being accused of inappropriate-ness?  I hope there are and I hope to find one some time.
