Santa's Wonderland

Last year we started a new tradition. We go to visit Santa at the Bass Pro shop.

Like usual, Cayden played with the train while we waited for our turn to see Santa.

Only two more people ahead of us. The line was not long at all. The best time to go is early in the afternoon. Before all the kiddos get out of school.

This year did not disappoint. The kids had such a great time sitting with Santa...

and so did his reindeer :)

Then it was off to play some games. Emma was obsessed with watching the race cars go around and around the track.

We stopped along the way to have a photo with Frosty. Emma did not want to cooperate. Go figure!

Next up was the carousel. It was Emma's first time riding one.

Cayden on the other hand is a total pro.

Emma loves motion and music. This was a perfect combo for her.

After the fun games and crafts we ventured around the store. There was a beautiful Christmas tree right in the middle.

So, of course I had to get a picture with the kiddos in front of the tree. 

Daddy and the littles checked out the fish. Emma was in awe of them. 

We went climbing in tents....

and laying on cot beds. They had such a great time. Definitely worth the long drive :)
