What a fabulous day!!! We started out the day cuddled in bed (yes, all of us) watching cartoons and enjoyed pancakes and bacon (a Cole favorite) for breakfast. Today was a day that I have been waiting for since December 1st. It was Santa day!!!! After relaxing at the house for a little bit we all got ready and headed to the mall to see Santa. Santa was not a favorite for Cole last year so we have talked a lot about him and looked at a lot of Santa things to get him ready. Oh my -what a difference a year makes! I did have to carry him up to Santa but he did great and sat in his lap so well (the sucker Santa gave him helped a lot). Cole even told Santa that he wanted a Thomas train for Christmas..oh, and a Frosty (the snowman...a new Christmas obsession). When we were done visiting Santa we let Cole ride the rides in the food court area. As he was riding around I heard him shout "Ben!" and there was Emily and Ben! The boys had a blast playing on the cars and walking around. Once they had time to run of a little energy we all went to lunch at a local pizza place. The boys loved it and the grown ups had fun talking and catching up. When we sat down we noticed Cole was saying "Go Hogs!" and "Woo Pig
Sooie" over and over. We finally realized there were football highlights playing on the TV near our table. I guess he thinks every football team is the Arkansas Razorbacks!!!! We ended the morning with a nap...yes, all of us. It was a wonderful day - one I will hold dear to my heart! I mean, hearing that little voice say "Thomas Train" to Santa was priceless!
