At the end of November, Cousins Annabelle, Michael Aaron, Gabriella, and Madison (shown, picture on left) were excited and were getting ready to go to the Northwoods Mall with Grandma Trish, Grandpa Mike, Elizabeth, Luke, Kevin, and me to sit on Santa Claus's lap and ride the train. Once we got there, we all went to Santa Claus to sit on his lap and take pictures. Gabriella sat on Santa's lap for the first time. At first, she was looking at him and was unsure about him. A little later, she started to cry and didn't want sit on Santa's lap. Luckily, we got a good picture with Santa before Gabriella wanted to get away from him. 
After we finished sitting on Santa's lap, we all went to the train area for kids to ride in a circle. Annabelle, Madison, and I with Gabriella on my lap went into the boxcar to ride the train. We all enjoyed it.
