Trip to See Santa

We took the boys to see Santa last weekend. Unfortunately, Creighton was being naughty in the car and after being warned, he had to sit in the car with Mitch while I took the other 2 boys in to sit on Santa's lap.
Jackson proudly announced that he wanted 4 marbles for Christmas and that his little brother Creigh-Jay wanted 2 marbles but that he couldn't come see him because he was being naughty.

I felt so bad for Creighton. I knew Mitch though, and Mitch sticks with punishments. However....not this time.

About 10 minutes later, Creighton ran up to Santa with 2 fingers in the air and announced that he wanted 2 marbles. He then sat on his lap and have you ever seen a kid so happy?
Speaking of not following through on punishments.....after a horrendous trip to Hobby Lobby with my kids last night, I cancelled Christmas in my frustration. Tonight Jackson's primary teacher came up to me and told me he heard Christmas was cancelled at our house. I guess Jackson remembered the lecture and let his whole primary class know I was angry and Christmas is cancelled. Yeah.....I don't think I will be following through with that.
