Santa's WONDERland

No, that isn't a typo in the title... that is truly how we felt about Santa's Wonderland this year! We've been going here with my family since 1999, and this was our best trip (at least with a child) ever! We went on a weeknight in late November, and apparently this is the key to very small crowds and extra friendly animals in the petting zoo. We had such a great time and were especially proud of Cade for loving his visit with Santa!



How cute is that? He just walked right up to him, gave him five, and climbed up in his lap. We had some quality time with Santa as we waited for his elves to arrive to actually take the picture. It was really fun!

My family has taken a group picture with Santa and Mrs. Claus every year too. Here we are!



After the Santa success, we wandered around Santa's Town for awhile. Cade was the only kid in the petting zoo and he had a great time chasing, I mean meeting, all of the animals. Notice the goat checking out my Dad's pocket. Do not notice that I accidently cut off my dad's head in the photo.




We also got to meet Marshall Frost.



Cade, Oma, and Opa viewed the giant Texas flag.



And Cade loved his funnel cake!



This was a perfect way to start our Christmas season!
