We spent the day with friends and traveled on the Santa Train to see "Santa!" (of course) The kids had a lot of fun playing with their friends, riding on the train, playing around the trains, eating cookies, and seeing Santa. Cameron asked Santa for Optimus Prime (transformer), Bubmblebee transformer, and these crazy penguins from a store in Snohomish. When Carter was asked he said "ummmmm" and then said "Boo" after we left Santa's lap. Boo is actually Boog from the Movie "Open Season". Carter doesn't watch much t.v. but he is obsessed with this Boog character. Hopefully Santa can find and deliver these much needed toys.
Santa and his helpers gave the boys a caboose, so we came home and painted the caboose. Now we are letting them dry, but the boys keep checking to see if they are ready for wheels.
We also went and had lunch at a Mexican restaurant nearby. When they saw all the kids in our group they gave us our own private room. It was perfect! The kids played hide and seek while we all chatted. It was the best restaurant experience ever!
This felt like the first official day of the holiday season! Our next stop is the Christmas tree!
