Ho Ho Ho!

Does this face say Merry Christmas or what? I think Alex had the same reaction to Santa last year. Drew definately also had the same reaction as in 2007. This year we avoided the line at the mall and went to a Breakfast with Santa at the Chicago Botanic Gardens. It was pretty fun and much more pleasant than the mall.


Alex loves him a waffle. So much so that he didn't want to put it down when Santa came by to say "hello." If you ever want a slimy waffle, Alex will be happy to share with you, just like he shared with Santa.

Alex seemed to enjoy the Wonderland Express train exhibit.

It is nice to be around plants in the middle of winter.

Brrrrrrr......
