Grey Cup in Regina is over (what a blast that was!) and now us prairie dwellers can turn our attention to the pending holidays. My little one isn’t so little anymore but when she was visiting the mall Santa’s for a photo opp was part of our annual traditions.

Even though getting out and tracking down Santa isn’t on our list anymore I thought I would take the opportunity to make it a little easier for those of you that do. I will do my best to update this page to keep it current but if you know of a Santa appearance that I’ve missed please drop me a line or send me a tweet to let me know?
