Pinky's Fandance - Santa Claus

In the spirit of the holiday, I thought we'd focus today's Fandance on The Big Guy himself, Santa Claus. As I've had many different run-ins with the guy over the years, I thought we'd take a walk down memory lane now.


While there may be earlier evidence (in fact, I remember seeing another Santa pic somewhere), this is the first one I have scanned in. My sister (who looks like a human doll) and I were obviously very into the whole thing. It's also one of the few pictures where we're not dressed alike. Santa doesn't look very impressed.


Ah, me and Santa. Why am I holding two bags? Greedy little bugger. At least the pigtails were sublime.


I always thought this was with my sister, but now I think it must've been my brother, Paulie. Why are we dressed alike? And who are we looking at? Finally, the biggest question of all, why is Santa an undefined color? I'm starting to think these weren't all the same guy (!).


By this age, me and Santa were obviously BFFs, although he seems a lot younger than previous years. Odd. At least I was far more festive this time out.


High school with my BFFs. Cute, right?


The last run-in with Santa was apparently in 1991. Ah, the good ol' days. Now we just try keep in touch on Twitter and Facebook, but I haven't seen him in a really long time!


Along with the Santa pics, I love all these old Christmas pics. My very first one! Is that a cat I'm loving on? Was I insane?

My sister, brother, and I. Again, please note the matching jammies. Happy Holidays from my family to yours! ;)
