A BIG choo choo train, Santa!

Bennett has a habit of covering his ears or placing his hands in his mouth when he is nervous or embarrassed. Thus, the look in these pictures:) It is also impossible to get a normal smile out of the kid! It is all cheese or none with him.

Once again, we went to Bass Pro to see Santa this year. They do such a nice job. You don't feel rushed, the Santa is amazing and they let me get pics of the kids together and separately.....for free! They also let you take as many pictures as you want with your own camera. We only waited for 45 minutes this year. Well, Caroline and I waited while the boys played around in the store (another reason why Bass Pro is a nice place to go for this tradition). Bennett actually informed Santa that he wanted a BIG choo choo train for Christmas! I thought he would clam up, but Santa was very patient with him and Bennett warmed up to him quickly. We took the kids to Red Robin afterwards for dinner. Next year should be Caroline's year to wail during the Santa visit......
