Merry Christmas Eve

We returned to the 94th floor of the Hancock Center today to visit Mr. and Mrs. Claus, just as we did each of the previous two Christmas seasons we've lived here, and we ate lunch at the Cheesecake Factory downstairs afterward just as we did last Christmas Eve. So call it a tradition.

We arrived a little early and were first in line - again, just like last year - and when Santa appeared from behind curtains he asked the kids for hugs, Levynn AND Lincoln obliged.

For the first time, they even sat with him for the photo without Mom and Dad!


The photo below was taken on the bottom floor of the building, in front of the holiday train exhibit.

Now look at this one from last year, taken in the same area.


Tonight, we got ready for Santa's arrival at our building.

And Levynn got ready for the morning...
