Warren, the Tree Train, & good/bad Santa photos

Warren came to town this past weekend... Vince loves Warren, his 8 year old cousin. He calls him Awan. Warren will spend 3 weeks here since he is on break from his year round school. Now that Warren is here, I have a hard time getting Vince out of my parents house. He runs away when I get there saying 'no mama'.

Warren, Vince, and my dad spent the better part of the other day putting the train around their tree. As an aside, my dad loves having his two grandsons around, especially since he only had daughters :)

Vince is so fascinated by trains. He loves using the remote to turn the train on and off.

On to Santa.... when Vince sees Santa, he says 'no ho ho'. He does not like it when Santa is around.

Above is our good Santa picture. It was taken a bit after the picture below in which Vince was freakin out. I decided to ask for a retake since this picture shows Vince's slobber running down his crying chin.... not to mention I really didn't like sitting on Santa's lap. So after some time passed, a candy cane, and a toy football, we quickly stood by Santa to snap the good picture. Vince had no idea we were even by Santa. I just leaned in for a second and go the snapshot!

We are taking the Polar Express train this weekend where Vince will see Santa one more time and get to have his first train experience... we are so excited!!
