Santa's Wonderland at Bass Pro Shops

A first for us this year...a visit to see Santa at Bass Pro Shops.  They have this super cute Santa Wonderland with bunch of activities for kids as well as the real Santa.  I mean hands down this is the most realistic Santa I have ever seen.

I decided to take the girls on a Tuesday night.  They had a short day at school and I figured that it wouldn't be too busy on a weeknight.  Well, I don't have anything to compare it to, but it was definitely pretty crowded for a Tuesday.  While we were waiting for our turn to see Santa, we kept busy wandering through the store:




We were definitely out of our element in this store.  Sorry, but we are "city folk."  Paige saw a fishing pole and asked me what it was.  Ashley said, "this store is really interesting even though I'm not really into this stuff."  Amen, to that Ashley.  I think this picture is a classic--Paige putting a letter in Santa's mailbox with a crossbow in someone's cart in the background.

Finally, it was our turn to see Santa



All visitors get a free picture with Santa, free craft ornament, a Christmas silly band and a free kids meal at the attached fish house restaurant.

By this time, we were starving so we took our free certificates for kids' meals over to the restaurant.  I highly recommend the bread they bring to the table.  It is a sweet yeast bread with a crusty sugar topping.  Ashley told me, "this may be the best bread I have ever eaten.  No offense mom, but it is even better than your homemade bread."  It was pretty good.

Good times.
