Happy Birthday Mommy!

After a couple takes and a little editing...

Hi Santa Claus

We took Brayden to go see Santa Claus and all the way Brayden was talking about going to see him.  When we got there they said he was on his cookie break so we had to wait 45 minutes.  Fortunately we were at Bass Pro Shops so we went and explored the store.  Brayden enjoyed the large fresh water fish tank although when the fish came closer he usually moved back from the tank.  They also had some fun activities set up like a big monster truck with a remote control and a train.  We played until it was time to get in line.  While we were waiting we saw Santa sneak out from his workshop and Brayden exclaimed " I see Santa Claus.  There he is right there."  His excitement was cute but it quickly wore off as we were standing in line.  He told us he wanted to go play with the train.  We had to tell Brayden that we would go play with the train after we saw Santa.  We watched as the kids in front of us took their turns and then it was our turn.  Andrew put Brayden down curious as to what he would do.  He walked right over to Santa Claus climbed up on his little foot stool and said "Hi Santa Claus".  It was so cute.  Santa asked if Brayden had been a good boy and his response was "yeah".  We were then able to get a couple of cute pictures of Brayden with Santa.  Santa talked to Brayden for a couple of minutes and told him to be a good helper and pick up his toys when he was done playing with them, listen to his mommy and daddy, and to also give mommy and daddy lots of big hugs.  Here are a couple of pictures of our visit.

 Ready for my picture!

 Yes Santa I have been a good boy this year!
