Holiday Season

Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving!
Calvin was more excited about his turkey shirt then eating the real turkey but he still ate a lot of of food (mainly olives). 
The weekend before Thanksgiving, the local mall had it's Christmas tree lighting celebration. We headed over to check it out. 
 There were lots of pretty lights and music playing.
 And there were huge toy soldiers to say hello to.
 Calvin is definitely starting to warm up to mascots/people in costumes so fingers are crossed for our Santa visit this year. 
 Then there was a train ride for the kids.
 We waited
 and waited
 and waited in the very cold
 to finally get on
 and ride in the caboose just like he had hoped for.
 He was so excited. He would just squeal loudly every couple of minutes while we waited.
 Then off they went!
 Around the streets of the mall.
 Chugga chugga choo choo!
 Here comes the caboose!
Worth the wait in the cold (but we were NOT waiting in the other long line for the carriage ride).
