Under the Tree

The presents were piled high under (and next to) the tree.

There was plenty to be found under the Christmas tree this year. A few things expected, a few surprises - and even pictures from Santa.

The girls had asked Santa to take a picture of himself when he made his stop. To help him out, we left our digital camera in front of the fireplace. We got the video evidence, but it wasn't exactly what we had in mind. It's clear the big guy is great at delivering presents, but awful at taking pictures of himself (below).

This is all we got from the picture Santa took of himself.
