Breakfast with Santa & Santa for Breakfast

I LOVE Christmas & everything that goes along with it. Especially now that Gavin is starting to understand the whole Santa thing. For playgroup we headed to the mall to have breakfast with Santa. It was great! They gave us our food, a ride on the carousel, face painting, a balloon & story time. Gavin loved every minute of it. Well, almost every minute. Frosty was walking around saying hello to all the kids & Gavin wanted nothing to do with him. He was totally fine around Santa, but Frosty on the other hand. He just stared at him so hard & the second Frosty got too close he lost it! :) I tried not to laugh, but just couldn't help it. I have a feeling he doesn't like the whole giant animal/snowman in my face thing. At least Santa is a human. Anyhow, he had a terrific time! I hope that they have something like this down in Florida for next year.
One morning I was feeling the holiday spirit & wanted to do something fun for Gavin. Of course I had just been on Pinterest & saw this really cute idea for kids for breakfast. Gavin didn't really know what it was at first, but once I told him it was Santa pancakes he loved it! He kept asking to eat more Santa. :)
Ho Ho Ho!

Only the coolest of moms sear a lightening Mcqueen sweater! hahahaha I might need to find myself one of those. I love the santa cakes! I think everyone can "eat more santa" during the holidays! :) What a cute idea!
