pics with Santa and the pirate elf

Every year during the week of Christmas, the Mister's work has a nice breakfast and Take Pictures With Santa.  Last year the kids were not thrilled to be sitting with Santa, but it was not outright rebellion:

This year, however, the general attitude was one of OH HELL NO.

Personally I think they were freaked out by the "eat your lemons or you'll get scurvy" elf standing next to Santa.

Greg was the only one who told Santa what he wanted for Christmas (all while not looking at Santa). It was a long list.  Nothing I've bought was on it.

Sugar makes everything better.

We walked around Rockefeller Center for a bit.

We had some bagels before leaving the city.  Peter was smeared head to toe in cream cheese by the time we left.
