Merry Christmas Eve

We visited the legendary Santa yesterday morning at the Children's Museum. There were no tears. And Carter asked Santa for dinosaurs and trucks and for a train for Ben.



We even saw Santa come down the chimney. Pretty cool. Here's hoping Santa can come through with Carter's requests.

After the big picture, it was playtime. I think Carter had a week's worth of no school, sick mama and dada pent up energy inside. He let it all loose at the museum. Running from exhibit to exhibit. So excited. Perhaps there was a little Christmas excitement in his step too.

We visited the apple tree...



Climbed all over the dinosaurs and gave our best dinosaur roar...



And he probably loaded this truck with the life size vegetable 10 times...



Then he would climb in with the vegetables until he would get stuck and ask for help to get out.

Ben chilled in the stroller and even managed to take a decent nap with all of the noise.



Merry Christmas Eve!!!

  2. And a Merry Christmas from Granddaddy and GG to Tracy, Adam, Carter on his third Christmas experience (may he remember more of this one) and to young Ben on his firt Christmas under Christs' care. We hope that all recover from their weeklong illness and experience all good things from their first Christmas as a family of four.
