*Updated* Congrats to the following winners: I am not your mother , Bubba’s Sis, The Eck Life, Fried Okra and There Must be More to Life than Laundry and Dishes! Please email me and I’ll tell you what to do!
We believe in Santa around here.
My nearly 9 year old has asked some pointed questions this year and while we haven’t directly misled her, we’ve told her to follow her heart.
She wants to believe.
And I think believing is good.
Look who came to our house a little early this year…..
Um, yes, that is SANTA sneaking around my house!
My hubby spotted a billboard on the way to work that read, “I Caught Santa!”
He told me about this great site that puts the seeing in the believing.
The good people at I Caught Santa want you to visit their site and imagine Santa in your living room. FIVE people will randomly be chosen to receive a personalized photo of Santa in their house! You can read the details here.
It’s so realistic, I think it might be real.
That’s because I still believe.
Leave a comment, five winners will be announced on Saturday morning. You better get that photo of your living room ready ($17.95 value, expires Jan.5).
What a FUN giveaway!!
Fun idea!
Such a cute thing! Believing is so much fun.

Love IT!!
Now THIS is fun! My daddy used to dress up like Santa on Christmas Eve when I was very young, and we actually have some photos. Somewhere!
My 9 year old is a FIRM believer; however, his little sister has asked just about one too many questions!
I believe!
oh, oh! Pick me!
Great idea! And I hope you have a lovely birthday.
I also have a 9 yr old on the verge!!!!! SO SAD! The picture might help her hold on another year!!!
THANKS
This is great!!! I think we have another year or two so this would be so fun!!!!
Thanks for the great contest.
fun!! Wonder if my puppies will bark at him?
This year our 7 year old is more excited than ever. I think she really wants to believe and Santa emailed us a couple days ago, so that was fun!
This would be so fun to do and maybe it would provide a couple more years of magic
Hopefully we still have a few years of believing–would love to have the picture to back things up!

I love this! This year my 11-year-old and 14-year-old just rolled their eyes at me when I talked about Santa. They’d get a kick out of this!
My kids would love this!
This is GREAT! I would love to win this! Really, it’s a wonderful idea and how cool that someone thought of doing it…
PICK ME!
That is a super idea – my younger kids would love that (and so would I!)
What an awesome idea! My kids would love this!
I’m crossing my fingers!
Thanks for offering such a Great giveaway!

This is a GREAT giveaway!
We never taught our kids about Santa. BUt, my daughter met him and aksed for a doll and got one. SO he MUST be real. no matter what we tell her. he IS real. This would be so fun for her.
I still believe.
What a sweet idea! I love it!

I still believe too!
How stinking cool is that?!?!?! I want one
Oh I still believe in Santa too. When I was of the age where I started to question, my father gently responded with “Well, if you stop believing in Santa, he will stop believing in you.” So every year I remind my father I still believe in Santa…I live 10 hours away from my family and somehow Santa still manages to leave me a little something every year. It’s magic and it’s fantastic.
I don not know who would love it more the kids or my husband!

OK strange… I was JUST at that site not 2 mins ago, lol. What a great idea this site has! I was playing around with pictures from last year, lol.
Wow that really looks real! Very clever idea!
That is SO fun! OMG! I didn’t even know a service like this existed! My kids would FUH-REAK (that’s right…not just FREAK but FUH-REAK!) LOL!
too cute!
It never ceases to amaze me the creativity that people have….so neat!!!
That looks perfect! I love it! I so hope to get one!

That is so cool! I still believe in Santa.
I believe!!!!!!!!!
We believe! One thing one of the Tigers has noticed that Santa in Florida is different than our Santa.
My 9 year old is on to me….she has older cousins that are putting ideas into her head that Santa isn’t real!!!! What?!! I really need this to keep the magic.
I first saw one of these yesterday and thought that they are so cute. Isn’t it great what we can do today with photo editing tools? I’d make my own but then I’d need a picture of Santa.
I saw that billboard the other day too and thought what a great idea!! ooooo I hope I win!!
What an adorable prize!!
Oh My How Fun!
Oh my! My fifth graders were TORTURED by their classmates this year because they still believe. They WANT to believe so badly, but of course they’re questioning the whole thing daily. This is perfect!
My 9yo daughter SO wants to believe. But her brother already doesn’t. And her little sister is listening intently to all the debate. I suspect the magic is almost over… Maybe the pic would extend it a little.
This is too cool. Last year I waited til all the gits were under the tree and then I took a photo of our tree and then found a photo of santa and photoshopped santa looking in our front door
That looks very cool. Off to visit.
That is seriously awesome.
But he is real, isn’t he?
Sounds great! Thanks!
That is so cool!
That is really neat! They do a good job, it does look real!
What a priceless idea! I wish it had been available when my children were little. If I lived near my grandchildren I could do it for them, though!
How fun is this! I would love to have one of these to share with the boys!
) Merry Christmas!!!
I’m still working hard to keep them believing – gets harder each year – what a GREAT idea!
I did it on another site for a bit less so I am ready for G to see her living room with Santa in it for real!! Good luck to whomever wins!
How cool!
Found that site the other day. Very cute! Best of luck with your believers!
Super Cute!
I wonder if they have a black Santa picture, too? Just curious. Al would LOVE that. But yeah, count me in, woman!
What a great idea!!!
My kids would DIE!!! Love it!
That’s a great idea. Fun.
Wow – your pic looks WAY better than the examples on this site!
(P.S. – Don’t enter me in the giveaway.)
Very clever idea!
Oh my golly! How fun! My 14 & 11 still believe too. They'd get such a hysterical kick out of this!
Too cool but there is another one, http://www.capturethemagic.com, you get 5 photos for the price of one from I Caught Santa, but enter me anyway!
This is awesome! Would love to win to fool my kids and my friends!
What a great idea! I’ve never won anything on a blog! How fun!
What a great Picture! This would be a wonderful treat!
Thank you!

This is so exciting! I still believe too…I have to remember every year to let my kids have some of the fun, too.
Count me in! I would love to win! I have two 8 year olds, one more believing than the other. A picture of santa in our living room couldn’t hurt!
