One step closer

One of our Christmas traditions is to head out to Strongsville for some dinner, get bundled up to see Santa then we drive around aimlessly looking at Christmas lights while listening to Christmas music. The past two years, Ben has not wanted anything to do with Santa. He's talked a good talk, but when it came time to go up and see him, Ben chickened out. We did a little better this year. It took a little bit of prodding, but Ben went up to see Santa and told him what he wants for Christmas. Of course, sitting on his lap was out of the question, but this was definitely an improvement over last year. Sam seemed intrigued by Santa, but I think it would have been pushing it if dad handed him over to Santa.
Sam didn't know what to think of all those lights!

That's a lot of lights! I can't even imagine their electric bill. Glad you guys had a fun time.
