Sunday morning we went back to Bass Pro to see Santa. Surely with everyone else at church, we could walk right up to Santa...... Well, not so much! We got there within 30 minutes of the store opening, and once again the line was all the way across the store! We decided to wait it out, we were determined to see Santa! There was a really nice family in front of us, that we chatted with the whole time, and that made the time go by faster. Faster.....not fast! After an hour and a half we finally got to the front of the line. (If you would have told us 5 years ago that we would EVER wait in line an hour and a half to see Santa, I would have said....no way! The thought of those two pair of sweet eyes looking sad if we didn't see Santa this time, changed our tune!)
Sutton was ready to talk to Santa, but Sophie was still a little unsure. Sutton was there for her the whole time. He told her he would sit on his lap with her. He was being such a caring big brother! (He also thought Santa would really notice how nice he was being to his sister!)
They just walked right up to Santa and started talking to him. If there were any nerves, we couldn't tell!
Sophie let Santa put her right up on his knee!
Then they all smiled (a little strangely) for the camera!
After the photo, Sophie told Santa just what she wanted!
and then.....
Sutton got to tell Santa his wishes!
And let me tell you, it was worth every one of those 90 minutes we spent in line, to see the smiles on their faces and the excitement in their voice!
