Meeting Mr. Claus

I was avoiding doing this. I did not want to stand in line forever to get a picture with Santa that I'd have to pay $20 for a 4X6. I'm sorry, call my Grinchy all you'd like, but I don't like that.

Then my sister told me that you can get a FREE pic with Santa at Bass Pro Shop. Well, how could I turn that down? I figured that even if the line was forever long, I could put up with it for a free pic.

Guess what? We only waited for 1/2 an hour. Yep, you read that right. 1/2 an hour. And when I say "we" I mean Whitney. The kiddos and I went off to find a present for Daddy, then we sat down at the coloring tables and colored till it was time to meet the Big Guy.




Porter was the only one willing to sit on his lap. He told Santa that he wanted a big train (get used to disappointment kid, 'cause that's not in Santa's bag this year), Piper told him a DS and Adi just shrugged her shoulders.

And then we left with our free candy canes and pictures.

And I was happy.

Oh, and so were the kiddos.
