How many Christmasy activities can you cram into one day?? Well, we tried our best to do as many as possible!! Of course, our morning started by checking out our goodies from St. Nicholas. Movies, Nutcrackers, Beanie Boos, gold coins, and candy! So many goodies! We ventured off to check out our pockets and find Shed! In our pockets, our activity of the day was "Go See Santa at Crown Center!" That means--- leave school early!!! So after a short stay at school, I picked the boys up and we headed on down to Crown Center! First stop- Fritz's for lunch! Then it was down the hall to see Santa. There was no line (YAY!) so I kind of expected the boys to linger around Santa for a little while, but they hopped on his lap, told them their wishes, I snapped their picture, and then that was that. It was like 1 whole minute. I guess the job was done! Grant asked for a base for his army men and Wyatt asked for the Imaginext Batbot Xtreme. As he was walking off, Wyatt did ask Santa if he could come to our house on the 23rd because we will be leaving the 24th to head for the farm. Santa said, "Of course!" And with that, they were off to explore Gingerbread Village. We did a little bit more exploring around Crown Center and then headed off for a visit at the Family Tree Nursery! The poinsettias there was truly remarkable! Such a pretty sign! We were pretty tired after all our adventuring, so we headed home and snuggled up to watch Arthur Christmas! Such a cute movie!! We were waiting for Levi to get home from drill and then we loaded up for a visit to watch the Deanna Rose light show and take a spin around Christmas Place! Phew!! What a magical day filled with so many of our favorite Christmas traditions!! I LOVE having days with my fellas, experiencing Christmas magic through their little eyes!! My favorite!
