Victorian Christmas 2014

Christmastime here once again! And once again, our annual traditions commence, including the Jacksonville Victorian Christmas.

These handsome boys of mine :)

 

 This was the best year yet for the carolers! They were especially beautiful.

 Yummy hot cider while waiting for the horse-drawn wagon ride:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 After some anxious tears about going to see Santa (and NO we would never force him to see him or talk to him! big parenting pet peeve!), Cole decided he would just go look at him... and Santa was so patient and kind, Cole ended up telling him what he wanted (a pogo stick) and even posed for a photo! (the candy can might have had something to do with it...sweet bribes work like nobody's business with this little man!)

 

 

 

Christmas season - my favorite!
