Santa Visit 2009

*I am back to blogging (I hope) and have lots to update with Luke's birthday, Christmas, and some in-betweens. The posts most likely will not be in chronological order, but I am hope to get back on track soon!*

In all the craziness that the month of December entailed in the Zukowski home, we did manage to see Santa on the 22nd. We went to the Matteson mall (a horrible mall, but the closest one to us). They do have a gorgeous Toyland set up for Santa though. They also had a deal in order to help everyone out for the holidays - you could take your own pictures with Santa and didn't have to buy anything, but if you did want a picture, it was only $5...what a deal!!! I did still buy the picture - you have to have the postcard frame around it, right?!?! Luke did really well though, although a bit terrified, there were no tears :) [Note: his jeans are long enough, it was just the way Santa was holding him :) ]

After seeing Santa, we let him hang out for awhile in the playarea. He really loved that!
