Santa at the Playhouse

Santa at the Playhouse

Each year we go and see a children's christmas production which is always good for lots of laughs. The kids watch Santa perform for about an hour and then they are happy to sit on his lap for tons of pictures. Aside from the blue tinsel in the background I like the photo.
