Santa Photo

The girls and I headed to the mall for the annual photo with Santa. While waiting in line we determined that this was Gillian’s 18th visit with Santa. I was pretty sure we took her when she was only a couple of weeks old.

I started looking for all of the Santa photos for the past 18 years and I managed to find them. There were a few years that threw me off, as we didn’t always go to the mall. In 1999, Grandma and Poppa took the grandkids on the Santa Claus Express, on the South Simcoe Railway up in Tottenham. In 2000 and 2001 we went to the Toronto Zoo.

The girls and I headed down to the mall for the annual photo with Santa. We went to the Erin Mills Town Centre where the “good” Santa is. As always, as we wait in line waiting for him to come we wonder if it is the real Santa. We got to the mall just before his 6:00 PM shift started so the line wasn’t bad. When it was the girls turn, Santa’s first question to Gillian was how old she was. Gillian told him and at the end when they were leaving he said to her “your a good sport!”. As I was waiting for the photo, I could hear Santa saying a little louder than usual “what kind of hair dryer was that?”.
