This year, it took several attempts before finally meeting up with the Big Guy. Mimi took Luca to the mall one day early in the season, just to test the waters, but Luca wanted nothing to do with the man, not budging from his stroller.
The 2nd attempt was a few days before Christmas at the Grove, but we weren't the only ones who had this idea, so we opted out of the 2 hour wait and just took pics outside of Santa's House and grabbed lattes at Coffee Bean.
I had ALMOST given up...until I decided to make a last ditch effort at the Brea Mall the morning of Christmas Eve. Guess what - procrastination WORKS! We literally walked right from our parking spot to Santa's lap, no wait at all! And the little guy did not disappoint me with his reaction...I tried to explain to him that he is gonna LOVE this guy in a few years :)
