Santa, Mrs. Claus visit Lindale ahead of Christmas

LINDALE, Texas (KLTV) - With just a week until Christmas, Santa Claus has been busy getting gifts prepared, his sleigh cleaned and the reindeer rested.

That didn’t stop him from taking time to visit families in Lindale this afternoon, by horseback.

Santa, Mrs. Claus and some of his helpers made stops throughout Lindale visiting with kids.

The little ones shared what they wanted for Christmas, took photos and some even got to sit on the horses.

“I started coming here, gosh, about 20 years ago I bet,” Santa said. “You know, I go all over the world, but there’s something special, when I started stopping by Lindale -- the greatest kids, they’re fun. The greatest adults, everybody’s happy, everybody gets along.”
