Scary Santa

Our family santa suit has gotten pretty weathered throughout the years. It has gradually faded from red to pink and the pants are now knickers. This santa suit was worn by Emmy's Great Grandfather Fred over 70 years ago. The bells have a very distinct sound to them. Whenever I hear them jingle, it brings back so many memories. I remember being absolutely terrified of this santa when I was little. All of us kids used to hide behind the big puffy chair at my grandma Hazel's house & scream when we would hear the bells coming down the stairs.
It has now become very comical whenever anyone puts this suit on. Brad had never seen this santa before, so we had to bring it out and show him. We were all laughing so hard...grandma Linda peed her pants!
