Santa Clause is Coming to Town!

This past Saturday, Santa came to Midway riding on a train....currently both are on Levi's list of favorite things! This was our first year going and it was really neat....here's some pictures of our day!

Levi and Kaden waiting for the train to arrive!

Colt waiting...poor kid gets drug along everywhere!

Here they come!

The train stopped right in front of where we were standing, and once they stopped they started singing Christmas carols.

He was happy :)

And very much in awe.

Once the train stopped, most families busted it inside the theatre to stand in line for Santa....but we just hung around outside.....and good thing we did because when Santa went from the train to the carriage, Levi and Kaden were standing right there and the elves asked them if they wanted to go for a ride around town!!!

So of course, you know what the answer was!

Once inside the theatre, they had all kinds of stuff for the kids to do....they could color, write a letter to Santa, get cookies, there was a minature train, and of course you could wait in line to talk to Santa. Here they are up on stage singing more carols. It was pretty neat!

Again....Levi was mesmorized with the train!

Waiting in line....

The boys with the elves :)

Sitting with Santa...Levi's telling him that he would like to have "Criss, Cross, Criss Cross Crash" for Christmas, while Colt tries to eat the top of Santa's hat.....

....then Colt moves onto Santa's beard, lol!

And this was the best shot we got!

Keeping in mind the real reason for the season, it's still fun to do some things like this and see the enjoyment in your child's face!
