Santa Claus is Coming to Town

Well, we actually got Landon to see Santa 3 times so far this season without crying! Landon went the weekend after Thanksgiving with his cousins Hannah and Justus, but he wouldn't sit in his lap, he would talk to him as long as I was right there and he didn't have to sit in his lap. He would give him a high five though.

Brian and I took Landon to the Holly Springs Christmas Festival they had last weekend. We stood in line for Landon to see Santa, and he actually sat on his lap and told him what he wanted for Christmas, which is an orange train.

On Saturday, Maw Maw Landon and I were doing a little Christmas shopping and we saw a flier in a store that said Santa was in the parking lot of Dick's Sporting Goods with a free ride on a horse drawn carriage so we decided to go. Well Landon was a little shy at first, didn't want to have anything to with Santa but the guy "driving" the horse asked Landon if he wanted to drive and gave Landon the reigns to the horse and let him drive. Another couple and their son came up at this time and we went around the parking lot and we asked Landon to share the reigns with the other little boy and he did. Landon finally warmed up a little to Santa and told him what he wanted for Christmas. After the ride they let Landon sit up front for pictures. He said he had fun when we talked about it in the car when we left. Please forgive a few pictures being blurry, trying to hurry and get the picture of Landon before he got down out of Santa's lap!
