It was a perfect day. This afternoon, Michael and I took the kids down to Main Street. Every weekend between Thanksgiving and Christmas, there are different Santas and Christmas Characters that wander around down there. They will talk to the kids and they hand out trading cards with their pictures on them. The shops stay open later during this time and there are other things like caroling and a train display. This year they even have an ice skating rink down in Frontier Park.
We wandered around Main Street letting the kids collect the trading cards. They ended up with 27 out of 29 cards. We stopped in at The Tintypery to make our appointment for our yearly family picture with Santa Claus. We'll be going back next Saturday for that. We watched the ice skaters for a while and bought a new Nutcracker for our collection. We stayed down there long enough to see the characters gather to sing Christmas carols. It was so much fun.
After that we went to Fazoli's for supper. Then, we came home and put up the tree and finished decorating the inside of the house. I just LOVE family time like that together. I even remembered to take my camera with me this year so we have pictures of the kids with the characters.
