Santa's Express

The Missouri USO had an event for military families at Union Station in St. Louis. It was a great day with the kids and Jones Family. The kids were very excited to ride the train from Scott AFB to Union Station.
When we got there they enjoyed picking out a free toy. The toys were surprisingly really nice. Audrey got Silvermist from Tinkerbell, Ethan got a Transformer and Jacob got a remote control helicopter.
Jacob was the only one who was excited about sitting on Santa and Mrs. Claus' lap. It was a good thing Mrs. Claus was there because I think Audrey would have backed out on the whole thing if she wasn't sitting there.
They all enjoyed getting their face painted.
Audrey got a Santa.

Alex got a reindeer.
Ethan watched very carefully to see that the lady made his snowman right. As we were leaving he said "Wait, she forgot to draw a carrot nose." It was almost as if he knew something was missing, but he just couldn't figure it out right away. Jacob was very happy with his face painting. It cracked us up that he chose Santa's beard and mustache to be painted on his face.
