Visitng Santa

The Saturday after Thanksgiving we took the kids to Bass Pro Shops to see Santa (and Jon wanted to look at bows). They actually have a pretty nice Santa set up there and there were only about 5 people in front of us in the line. Derrick was so excited to tell Santa that he wanted a Spin and Fix Thomas and then he threw a fit when it was time to go see him. Luckily I was able to get him to go up, but then he was a little worried after because he only told Santa he wanted a train and he wasn't sure he would know which one to bring him! Emma asked for a Pony play set (after some coercing from mom) and a fairy princess. The kids love going to Bass Pro Shop, they call it the "Big Animal Store". We looked around and had some fun. The kids begged for toys...Derrick really wanted a boat play set and Emma really wanted a pink gun (she said she had a dream that she got one for Christmas) and a pink Hummer Camping play set. I told them to wait until Christmas. (Emma got her Camping set, but Derrick was already set for presents!)

Derrick still looks a little scared in the picture!

And on a pink quad!

I told Jon this would be his dream Christmas tree...all decorated with antlers! (Ha, not in my house!)

Sam also saw Bass Pro Santa- in his picture he looks like a deer in the headlights... very appropriate :)
