Another Visit With Santa!

Today, we had another interesting encounter with Santa. Tyler Mall's Santa doesn't start until tomorrow, so we were just walking around the little village, checking out the trees. Then...we saw "Santa" helping set up the village! He came over and talked with Jayden, told him to come sit on his lap, asked him what he wanted, and just visited. We hung out for about 10 minutes. Jayden was talking up a storm.
This Santa was SO good with Jayden.
Asked if I had a camera (I did), and asked if he could hold Brady too.

The first Santa we met, walked up to us in the Moreno Valley Mall, and this Santa at the Tyler Mall. He told Jayden he was helping to build the Village so kids could come visit him, and that's why he didn't have his fancy suit on. Such a nice Santa! Too funny!
Asking Jayden what he wanted. Jayden told him a
Lightening McQueen Truck!
Then, Santa asked to hold Brady too!Brady was in awe of Santa!Such a magical time of the year for kids!Checking out the big presents and the village.Daddy and Brady...I love this picture!We tried to get Jayden to hold still for a picture,
but he was just too excited after talking with Santa!
Jayden rode some rides...Then, we had a nice lunch at Islands.

Taking the bumbo to restaurants is the only way to go!Jayden asked if Brady could sit by him.Such a good big brother!I love my family!
We fly to Washington in a few days to spend Thanksgiving with my sister and her family, and we are celebrating Christmas while we are there. Can't wait to spend time with my whole family! (My parents fly there in the morning) I'll post when I get back!
Happy Thanksgiving!
