Our "week-end of fun" began Thursday night with a Christmas reception/party at our science museum. There were, of course, the trains on display, cookies to be decorated, and Santa Claus to meet. I had wanted to see the trains last as getting Jackson away from them requires serious bribery and I didn't really have anything to negotiate with. He was smarter than that so trains were first. So we saw all the trains over and over and he finally agreed to go decorate a cookie. That was fun, messy but fun. We could have also sat down in another room and made Christmas tree ornaments but they were not really interested. Santa was on the other side of the room and the line never seemed to go down so that was the very last stop. I waited in line with Isabel & Mallery & Landon (friend from work and her little boy) and Kevin drug Jackson over when we got close. It was really not even necessary because he was NOT going to go and sit in Santa's lap much less tell him about the new choo train he wants (I told him to tell Santa Clause he wants a choo train because that is what he's getting). Anyway, Landon went first and he was great. No crying, no hesitation, nothing. Isabel walked over when Landon was there just to "check it out". I guess she thought all was well because she did sit in his lap and even told him she wanted a "new kitchen" for Christmas (guess what she's getting) :)
Anywho, here's the photo shoot
