Santa!! 12/20

We went to the mall tonight to see Santa.  We had seen a Santa at the Otter Creek Clubhouse, but he wasn't the real Santa and was pretty bored/tired.





See what I mean?  I told my kids we were going to see the REAL Santa!

I had invited another family to go with us.  They have a 9 month old and a 3 year old.  To be fair, I warned them that there would be a long wait.  We waited in line for over an hour because Santa was at dinner when we first got in line.  All the kids were starving so Victor went downstairs and bought dinner.  The kids were eating Chic Fil A in line.  When we finally got to the front of the line, some raggedy looking guy offered my friends $5 to let him cut in line.  The guy did not even have kids with him.  Must have been a bet?!?  During the hour and a half wait, Victor informed me that William and Jonah have practice tonight at 7:00. It is already 6:50 and we have not seen Santa yet and we do not have their clothes.  Victor wasn't too happy about that. When all was said and done, we had missed practice but - this is what we came home with:

                                                           Ahhh, that is sooo much better. 

I also got inspiration from our friend's house.

Pretty cool right?  I am going to try it!
