Santa's Helper

Every year Grandpa S ends up pretending to be Santa. Really, it's awesome! Can you imagine how freaked out EB would be if this person WEREN'T His Grandpa!?!?! As it is, he looks a bit... unsure.
Basically, Grandpa is Santa's helper. He helps because Santa is busy getting the toys and stuff together for the Big Night. So Grandpa listens to what the kids want and then makes sure Santa knows!
The kids know to pretend that Grandpa is Santa when he is pretending too. It's all part of the fun of Christmas!

Pictures with the Man in Red

Missy My was really acred of Santa this year. Hence only one picture. I finally had to break it to her that "Santa" was Gpa S pretending to be santa. At that point she recognized his voice and wasn't scared anymore. The last picture is of "Gpa Santa" and cousin Little J.
