A visit on Monday to the Crown Center to see Santa at Crayola Land. Those were probably the best "smiles" I could get from John. Alyssa was being so patient with me having to take a dozen photos just to get one okay picture! :)



Here's some photos from a trip to Crayola Land in 2006 and for a train ride at Union Station - so amazing to compare from a few years ago!
