Dear Santa

We decided to spend another fun evening together this year by visiting Santa. Bergen went as far as he could go by 4-wheeler.
Then we hopped on this reindeer and rode him all the way...
...to the North Pole!
At the North Pole Bergen got to pet Santa's reindeer, take a picture with Santa, and even got a candy cane for the trip home.
So I wasn't planning on making any special trips to see Santa this year, but when the North Pole comes to the nearby Bass Pro shop, and has free pictures with Santa and carousel rides, we decided it would be another good way to spend a holiday evening together. I was expecting to have to be in the picture holding Bergen but he did great. He didn't smile and was a little apprehensive, but he didn't cry :) Maybe next year I'll be thinking a little more and dress him in something less surf and more winter. I can't believe ME of all people didn't think of that! On the way home we got hot chocolate (Which by the way wasn't doing so well in a sippy cup. Poor Bergen got more down his chin than he did into his tummy!) and drove around looking at Christmas lights. It was really fun to see Bergen point and oooo at the lights.

No surprise he wanted to ride the 4 wheeler as far as he could.
