We met our good friends, Stephanie, Emma and Julia at the mall for a visit with Santa. Our mall Santa is the real Santa. He has been at our mall for over 25 years! He is so popular that they have a very elaborate system where you go get a ticket with a number and come back when that number is up. I like it! Stephanie got our number when she dropped her kids off at school and we all went back later that day.
Katherine is a pro and liked Santa. She told him that she wanted "Dress Up". Those kids have so much dress up but still want more.
Caroline was not as sure about Santa. As we were waiting she put her hand over her mouth in the same way that she does when we see "Josh" our Elf at home. So, I knew she was a little scared.
She insisted on taking her baby doll with her. There were no smiles but there were no tears either so that was a success in my book.
Emma and Julia did pretty well.
Afterward we went to the food court for Chick-Fil-A and then to see the ducks and turtles. For some reason this mall, one of the most popular in town, does not have a play area.
So, the kids climb and slide on the planters. I am sure all the old ladies shopping just love that. I remember doing the same thing as a child.
