My Favorite Christmas Eve...

After 2 weeks of all 4 of us being housebound with the flu and tummy bug- we FINALLY made it to Spokane for Christmas!  On Christmas Eve,  Dev and I got the opportunity to take Hudson to the "North Pole."  We took a 40 minute cruise on Lake Coeur d'Alene to see Santa and Mrs. Clause.  It was absolutely gorgeous- beautiful Christmas lights everywhere.  The highlight was when Hudson heard his name being read off the "nice list" by Santa.  I LOVED his reaction...it made my whole Christmas!  
 It was the most amazing Christmas experience ever... 
Hudson was a little nervous at first.  He did NOT want to sit in Santa's lap...again.  He decided that he would rather see Frosty the Snowman.  (which we did see Frosty, the Gingerbread Man, and the Grinch)!  At the end- he decided it was the "most fun ever!"
Thanks Grammy Nancy and Papa for the very memorable Christmas present for the 3 of us! :)
