Visiting Santa 2016

We went to visit Santa last week at Crown Center.
And, as per tradition, we went out to dinner afterwards.  This year, we headed to Jack Stack.  Brian just loves that place.  The kids did a great job with eating the bbq.  We only had one problem, named Eli, that just didn't want to sit still for dinner.  He's at that 'get up and move' stage that makes restaurants, church, etc very difficult.  But, we had a great time during our rather quick meal out.


Eli did great on Santa's lap, and I just love this picture because Eli is obviously staring trying to figure out who this guy is, and the kids are so excited to see how Eli would do.


The kids gave him their lists of Christmas gift ideas.
Colin's included: a Wii U, and some Wii U video games such as star wars and mario brothers.
Maggie's list had: a gift card for some new play makeup and a makeup bag to hold it all.
She just loves putting on a little (sometimes too much!) blush and lip gloss.
Eli didn't have a list, and will likely get toys retrieved from our basement storage.  Win win for everyone

A little blurry, but Santa was making sure the kids always listened to their Mommy and Daddy.


and as usual, the kids do their 'fist bump with flying reindeer' handshake with Santa.

We love going to Crown Center during the week, as there is usually little-to-no lines and the Christmas displays are so fun to look at.

Next up: decorating our Gingerbread house!
