It's that time of year, a time when we bake cookies and leave them out with some milk for Santa. We all want to go see the VIP of Christmas, Mr. Claus, to take pictures, remind him that we've been on his nice list, and tell him what we would like for Christmas.

Luckily for us, Santa travels all around from the North Pole for us to stop by and say "Hello" to him. This means that Mr. Claus and even Mrs. Claus also come and spread Christmas cheer around New England.

Celebrities are just like us, they too enjoy meeting Santa to help get into the holiday spirit. Earlier this week, actor Ryan Reynolds and his wife Blake Lively met the joy-filled Claus couple on a Christmas train in New England.

Ryan Reynolds took to Instagram to post a picture to share this magical moment.

Not going to lie, I wish that Reynolds chose to wear matching pajamas with Blake Lively! She wore holiday PJs and showed off her baby bump to Santa and Mrs. Claus.

Do you know the name of Mrs. Claus? Because it seems like Reynolds may be closer to the Claus family than we knew, as he reminds us that Mrs. Claus' first name is actually Jessica.

Of course, it would not be a Ryan Reynolds post without some comedic relief. When talking about Mrs. Claus, he said " She was everything I’d always dreamed since I was a kid. She smelled like cinnamon buns and sangria."

The real question though is where were Reynolds and his wife? Well, they took the North Pole Express on the Essex Steam Train in Connecticut.

I honestly believe that there are some amazing holiday experiences that Reynolds and his wife could have visited in New England that would also let them see Santa! Some of the other places that they could have chosen to visit are:

  • The Polar Express Train Ride at Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad
  • Santa's Village in Jefferson, NH
  • Ho Ho Hobo Santa Express in Lincoln, NH
  • The North Pole Express at the Railway Village Museum in Boothbay, ME

There are so many amazing Christmas experiences all over New England that you could visit this holiday season, and who knows who you may run into!
