Santa Claus is coming to town!

On November 18th Santa Claus came to town! He rode in on his sleigh pulled by two beautiful white horses! Of course we had to go! Landon just could not wait for his arrival. He got to the mall early and my niece, Elyssa, joined us.

Patiently waiting for Santa to arrive in his sleigh!

Santa!

Bless him! He was waving so hard!

Landon was a little confused about the horses...."Where's the reindeer??" he asked...

But he quickly forgot about them since he got to sit in THE SLEIGH!

Corinne, as usual, slept through it!! haha

There was such a crowd that night that we did not stay to actually sit in Santa's lap. We made the (smart) decision to come back another day, and so glad we did! The kids did GREAT! Landon has always loved Santa (unlike the little boy that was in front of us in line...)  He has never cried, rather he can't wait to be able to sit in his lap. I was worried about Corinne though. She's not a huge fan of new people, and all of the colors and hair I thought would scare her. Nope, not in the least bit! Corinne did wonderful for her first time to see Santa! The kids wore their coordinating shirts that were their initials made to look like reindeer. Landon quickly hopped into Santa's lap and began telling him each and every thing that he wanted for Christmas. Once he was finished we sat Corinne on the other knee. She was in awe of his beard, "petting" it and waving at him. So sweet! 

...and I want a Gator, a bunch of tractors, and some surprises!

Well Hello there!

What a lovely beard you have, Santa!

Waving! :)

Then, on December 10th we had breakfast with Santa! It was a fundraiser for Landon's school, and just as before Landon wasted no time giving Old Saint Nick the lowdown on what he wanted under the tree. Santa told him, "Well, I know you've been such a good boy so I am sure you will get everything you want." Really, Santa? :) You must have deeeep pocket books! :)
