Visit to Santa

So, you may be wondering where Karsten and Cooper are and who is this precious child with Peyton.  Well it is a long story, but Peyton's school was having their book fair last week and they had Santa come one evening so that families could take pictures with him for free.  You took the pictures with your own camera, which was really nice and they had pizza and carrot sticks for sale so that you could make an evening out of it.  This was an ingenious idea to get more families up to the school to buy more books too.

So back to Karsten and Cooper.  Karsten was having some behavior issues after school and after too many unheeded warnings, I had to throw down the big punishment- No Santa!  So, I left him with my mom and took Peyton and Cooper to see Santa.  When we got up to see Santa, Cooper refused to go anywhere near him.  Cooper is the shyest of all of the kids.  Peyton was always shy, but Cooper is annoyingly shy and will not be talked into even looking at someone that he doesn't want to talk to.  So, Cooper was standing about 10 feet away from Santa and Peyton got her picture made with her buddy, Devyn, instead.

Merry Christmas!
