Visiting the Man in Red

Yesterday, we kicked off the holiday season with a trip out to a Christmas train exhibit at Yew Dell Botanical Gardens. I'd always wanted to go out there to explore, but never had. Kevin found this event, and he apparently knew that Santa would be there (which I did not know until we got there). It was a rainy morning, but Lewis was happy to watch the trains (inside) for over an hour while we waited for Santa to arrive.
 There he is!
We both wondered how close Lewis would get--I took the kids to an event a few weeks ago, and Lew wanted nothing to do with Santa. I honestly think it was because that Santa was wearing brown boots. Lewis commented that Santa was supposed to be wearing black boots, so I think he thought the guy was an impostor. ;)
 
 Alas, he walked right up to him all by himself this time!
 Lenore was not a fan! 
S: What would you like for Christmas? L: A digger. S: A yellow one? L: Yes.
I was so proud of how clearly he spoke to Santa.
