Where's his reindeer???

I took the boys out today for a "quick trip" to Michael's and Joann's to get a few crafting supplies. As we were walking out "Santa" in street clothes drives past us and parks next to us. As I'm buckling Owen in, Santa gets out of his van and walks past Liam; who stops him and says, "where are your weindeer?"

I flash a look at Santa, not certain what he will say, to which he looks at Liam and reply's: "they're back at home taking a nap so they're ready for their big day."

THANK YOU SANTA in street clothes, and (Ms. Claus who also passed!)

To which Liam says "Oh!" Santa drives a car too?
Me: "Sure he does, there's no where to park reindeer at the mall."

Satisfied...

Disclaimer: This is not the guy we saw, but he was Merry like this guy.

Classic! That is awesome and for your sake I'm glad he played along. I remember when Kylee used to call ever man with a semi white beard SANTA...even those with tattoos, cigarettes, and bandanas!

That was hilarious! I can't wait until Eli is old enough to embarass me in public. Hahaha. Cute, cute. The only embarassing we had last week was some non-stop crying bouts on the plane--those are NOT cute and nothing to post about! :P

I just miss you guys! Happy belated birthdays and come see us soon. We may end up in your old neck of the woods for a Bowl game! Sugar bowl anyone?
Love Lacey
