SANTA!

We went to see Santa Claus at Bass Pro Shop in early December to beat the rush!  Believe it or not we still had to wait in line about an hour to see him.  The nice thing is they give you a card so you can shop around the store while you wait and come in line for your scheduled time.  Smart folks that have!  Chance was excited to see Santa and tell him what he wanted.  Everything changed once he was in line!  He watched as several kids in front of him cried as they sat in Santa's lap and I could tell he was getting nervous the closer we got!  When it was our turn Chance looked and me and said very matter of face, "I don't like Santa, mom I don't like Santa!"  Well we had to get our free picture so I placed my frantic two year old in Santa's lap and Ben held Hallie in his lap because Santa was clinging to the crazy child.  Hallie on the other hand was fascinated with Santa's beard and stared at him in amazement.  Ben and I had not planned on being in the picture but we did!  The picture says everything!  Once it was over Santa offered Chance a candy cane which he of course took.  As we were walking off Chance looks at me and says "That was fun!"  I am not exactly sure where I was then:) Great memories.

So excited

He loves the fish (freaks him out when the big catfish swims at him though)

In line.....getting nervous

Great set up!

Merry Christmas!
