Early Impromptu Santa Visit

After last years Santa debacle I wasn't sure if I was going to attempt the whole Santa thing this year, however we were at Bass Pro the other night and Santa was there and Matthew decided that he wanted to see him, so who am I to keep a kid from Santa? He refused to talk to him or sit on his lap, but slowly walked up to him, took a candy cane, and then stood next to him for the picture (which I want to add that I was not pushing the issue, this was all his decision, despite the apparent trepidation). Meredith had no idea what was going on and was not happy about the strange, hairy man holding her.
