Breakfast with Santa 2009

This morning was the annual Breakfast with Santa at the Wagner's house. It is always a fun time. Brayden was still quite weary of Santa - this year wouldn't even attempt sitting on his lap. Kept saying "Go home, Go home" when we would even approach him, so we didn't force it - and just let it go. He has plenty of years to warm up to him if he chooses too :) He enjoyed playing with the kids that were there, especially his cousins, Cooper and Charlee. Here are some pics from the morning:

An attempt at a cousin's picture. :) Quite difficult to do!

Proof Santa was indeed there - Grady was a bit shy too.

The highlight of the morning was going outside to see Cousin Cooper's Lightning McQueen car. You can see from Brayden's face - he is very excited! He kept saying "Ka-chow, Ka-chow"

This is Brayden's favorite character! And he got to sit in him! What a dream!!!! His feet didn't reach the pedals so he couldn't drive it (thank goodness) but he sure felt cool sitting in it.

Very sweet ride. Cooper was very patient to share with so many other kids.

Grady liked it too.

Back to the rightful owner. Cooper drives is remarkably well for a 3 year old. I was very impressed! :) Mad skills that kid. Notice dad's foot stopping him for the moment. Hopefully by the time Brayden is old enough he will be onto another phase and won't want one of his own.
