Evan joined us for the fun. He and his mom being there has sort of been a part of the tradition each year so we were delighted they could make the fun with us.
The kids started with a bouncy raceway.
The big kids, E & Big D headed for Treasures of the Carribean and Little D headed for the Bucaneer something... LOL with Mich going with them and me following the little one. Great Teamwork!
They got some cotton candy with the free tickets we were given and then they took in some mini golf.
They took it all quite seriously. There was contemplation, lining up of
shots... clearly skilled athletes!
Then they had a blast with some "snow / bubble" machines that were happily spewing stuff at us with Christmas music blaring in a fun way. Kids were everywhere, beaming with excitement!
Then we headed over to see Santa, and chat with him, get a coloring book and candy cane from him, have a picture snapped and .... how about an artificial snow fight too???????
Big D was clearly reflecting on whether or not that was the real Santa and from the look on her face it was a no-brainer... so since she looked sooooo skeptical... and Little D was so psyched, I honed in on the old standby and had a whispered convo on the side... "look, I know he isn't the real one but he obviously works for the real one, so this is an opportunity to have a convo with him and he will pass it on to the big guy"... after a second or two of mulling that... she was equally psyched.
so next we all decided to bounce and velcro ourselves to a velcro wall! that was a blast! Just the suits alone were crazy! They were huge and crunchy! you could hardly walk in them let alone bounce and fling yourself... hahahahahahhaha... I would recommend this to anyone!
