Busy, Busy Wednesday...

I am finally home after a very, very BUSY day! We (Whitney, Tucker, Mom, Amanda, and myself) left Franklin at 7:45 this morning heading to Richmond. We did make a pit stop in Courtland at Dairy Queen for some breakfast:-) Our 1st stop was Short Pump to get Tucker's Christmas pics taken. Next we had lunch with my Aunt Peggy who lives in Short Pump, it was a short but nice visit! Then we headed to downtown Richmond to The Children's Museum to see the famous REAL SANTA...aka Ho Ho to Tucker! We saw Ho Ho pretty quickly which allowed for some play time inside the actual museum...Tucker had so much fun! Then we decided that we would stop at Southpark Mall in Colonial Heights to let Tucker see the singing bears and the choo choo train! Boy did he like that! And of course we had to see Ho Ho again...Tucker was adamant that he sit in his lap again! Now keep in mind that he saw Ho Ho on Tuesday at the credit union in Franklin...he just can't get enough! We did manage to get a little bit of shopping in but not much at all b/c we wanted to get on the road before it got to terribly late! And that was our WONDERFUL busy, busy, Wednesday! Tucker so excited b/c he is about to see the REAL Ho Ho!
Tucker and the Snow Princess!

Santa sees Tucker's choo choo train sweater and tells him to look on his tree which is filled with lil' choo choo train ornaments...Tucker thought that was GREAT!



Tucker thinking HARD about what he would like Santa to bring him...he finally told him a firetruck, a choo choo, and a truck like his Daddy's...LOL!





Tucker got to talk into the microphone!

And one last time Tucker says goodbye to Ho Ho!
Time for some fun in the museum!



Tucker worked on a car...


Picked apples off of a tree...



And dumped the apples back so that they could fall again and again and again...

And he met a giraffe!

Looks like Tucker had a great time! We have a video with the "real" Santa Claus that we saw at Miller and Rhodes (I think) in Richmond. My Mama makes us watch it every year! It's hilarious because we were getting a little big for Santa.

Looks like a great day!! I just love that first picture of Tucker -he looks SOOO excited. It is really cute he likes Santa so much too. Caleb only likes Santa from a distance - he will blow him a kiss, but definitely doesn't want to sit on his lap!
