We are lucky enough to have Del Osso Farms, practically in our backyard. We go every year for the pumpkin patch and the kids love it. There is so much to do!!
This is the 3rd year that they have had Holidays on the Farm. The whole place is turned into a Winter Wonderland!
Inside the country store they had pictures with Santa. The line was a little long but ended up being soooo worth it. Better than any mall Santa anyday!! Marco was excited to see Santa from far away but up close he wasnt so sure. The lady taking the pictures was so patient and aware of her audience. She let me sit in the slay for a few min to warm Marco up to Santa. Santa gave the boys cupcakes and opened Marco's for him as he talked to him. Just a few minutes later I sat him on his lap and he LOVED it. Mateo was excited to tell Santa what was on both their lists!! And reminded him that there would be cookies for him at our house. He spent the time to listen and we got a ton of pictures!!
They had a huge fire pit where they were making Smores that was pretty cute too.
We saw some reindeer and the boys were in awe. And then we were off to the hightlight of the night. The train ride through the lights. The boys LOVED it is an understatement. Marco has since asked to go back so many times. We just might go back for a ride before they close!
Such a fun place to go and hard to believe it took us until now to make it their for their holiday setup. Definitely a must go to from now on. And next time, I think we'll try the snow tubing!!

Marco was so excited to see Santa he was waving to him from his spot in line!
Santa waving back!! Marco loved it! Fast forward a few min and when it was time to sit on his lap...mommy had to sit too for a few min while Santa warmed him up!! gave him a candy cane and opened it for him. Santa and Marco = new best buddies!
The best Santa we have seen yet.
So interactive and friendly with the kids!!
Definitely not a mall Santa!!
They had a mailbox and paper to write letters to Santa so we whipped one up in a minute to make sure Santa didn't forget (and since we forgot our list at home).
He smoked the other kids!! So much fun but poor Marco was in tears cuz he was too little to ride. Hopefully next year!
