My happy today was taking the kids to seven peaks' North Pole tonight. It was a busy day and a mad dash to make it happen, but it was the last night we could take advantage of a free ticket. So we arrived with about two hours to play and the kids were delighted. It was so busy and full of people that we didn't get to do much but had a good time. I took the girls on a bike ride through scenes from the Nutcracker and husband took the girls on a boat ride through the winter wonderland. We got a snack and admired the light displays.
My sad is that we were trading off because of the ridiculously long lines and misjudged how long the boat ride line was. So I was waiting in the Santa line and the girls didn't make it in time before he had to leave for the night. I was the very last person and realizing they weren't going to make it, I almost set just baby Z onto his lap but Z took one look at that guy and burst into tears. It was the only time I've ever seen him react like that. Poor guy. So we sent Santa home and cuddled instead.
Overall a fun night and glad we went but must plan much more ahead if we were to go again and go earlier in the season.
