Santa 2010.

There is no Santa Photo Booth at the shops here in down town Kununurra. Hard to believe but true! There was a small ad in the local paper the other week saying sorry no Santa photos this year due to an impending birth. So what is a Mum to do? I have to have my Santa photo, have had one every year since 2004. During my recent whirl wind trip to Darwin while wandering around Kmart, I found a Santa Suit for $7! $7???!!!! So I brought it just for this photo shot. The girls weren't fooled at all about it being their Dad. "When is the real Santa coming Mummy?" Milly asked, soon sweetheart soon.

We will be going here on boxing day for 2 weeks so I'll be taking a blogging break while we are away. Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas, looking forward to sharing 2011 with you all.

Well done on the emergency Santa plan, Helen! Have a wonderful vacation (steer clear of crocs, please, honestly I think I'm more worried about them than you). See you in the new year friend. ♥

Helen, Love the photo - inspired! I just saw you are coming to SIT next year and thought 'I can't wait to meet you finally'. Then I see you are coming to the Gold Coast for a holiday which just just half an hour from my house. Let me know if you need any crafty tips while you are in our 'neck of the woods'. Happy to help or give you a tour. All the best - Susie

The girls are just gorgeous! And dads make the best substitute Santa's ever!

Have fun on your holidays!

PS did anyone else think it ironic that Santa couldn't show because of an impending birth? i.e. at Christmas - when we remember the birth of Jesus?
