Just as we did last year, for Wyatt's first Christmas, we drove out to North Pole, Alaska to take Wyatt to The Santa Claus House, to visit Santa. We started outside with a visit to Santa's reindeer, which Wyatt thought were dogs, and then we went inside to look at the gifts and ornaments while we waited for our turn to see Santa. I had high hopes that Wyatt would be his friendly usual self, as he normally has no problem with strangers. Yet, that was not the case. Apparently a big guy with a loud deep voice and bushy beard, that somehow knows your name, is not the most comforting sight. I had my camera ready and Justin sat Wyatt on Santa's lap, Wyatt took one look at that guy and started crying! I did get two pictures, needless to say though, neither of them are frame worthy. To top it off, as we continued to look around the gift shop afterwards, Wyatt kept giving Santa dirty looks every time we walked by! Maybe next year will be better. 
.2 seconds until meltdown
He did enjoy the candy cane that he got from Santa, so it wasn't all bad!

He and David had about the same reaction to Santa. I tried it a second time and he practically bounced off Santa's lap back into my arms, screaming all the way. Oh well, maybe next year! It looks like the rest of it was fun!
