Santa Land!





























Oh what great memories we made tonight!! For the first time ever we arrived at Santa Land before it opened, so we got to see Santa and Mrs. Claus ride in on their slay. We were also at the front of the line, so were did not have to wait but about 30 minutes. We have waited over 2 hours before in freezing cold weather. It was a great night. Emily went right up to Santa and told him her name was Emily and that she wanted a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse for Christmas. Kaitlynn did very well also, not crying once. We were able to get some really good pictures and you will probably see them again in a Christmas Card. After we saw Santa we went and looked at all of the different things they had at Santa Land. And then, as is a tradition, we went and looked at Christmas lights on houses while listening to Christmas music. We did sing a few songs ourselves, well okay I was really the only one singing except when I sang Deck the Halls, Emily did the Fa, La, La, La, La part. It is so cute! If you look really close at Emily's hands you can see that we painted her nails today. She loves having her nails, toes and fingers, painted. Kaitlynn also had her toe nails painted today!! Thanks to Mommie for coming with us and taking pictures at Santa Land. Sorry we did not get a pictures with her, that was my fault. Well, we have her voice on the video we took. Santa Land is one of my favorite things to do during the holiday season. Shelby and I became engaged 9 years ago at Santa Land, so it will always hold a special place in my heart. I hope that it will stay open for many, many years. This was the 52nd year for it to be open, WOW!
