Santa's Coming to Town







Friday night kicked off the Flotilla festivities and we headed down to Wrightsville Beach to see the lighting of the Christmas tree & Santa's arrival. Unfortunately, it began raining early Saturday & did not stop, so we missed the Flotilla festival and parade that we always attend over Thanksgiving weekend. The boys hit the train museum instead & had a great time & then met up with the older cousins to eat wings & watch football. Since we'll be spending Christmas in Iowa this year, Filson opened a couple presents over the weekend & here he is with his very own Thomas train & track from Mimi. He is having a great time playing with all his new things, but he's really missing having his cousins here to play with!

Gosh, I bet it is quiet around your house now! Super pics of John's family - looks like everyone had a great time. Boy, Filson is going to have the "opening presents" down pat with him starting now!!! He'll get some use out of his boots with your IA visit! Can't wait to see all of you!!

I love Filson's little pjs! Those are just what we need for Dax. I'm sure Filson will love his train set. What a great present.
Hope you are doing well, Britt!
