Annual trip to Winter Wonderland

In our area the local Bass Pro Shop sponsors a Winter Wonderland and has Santa come to visit. The pictures are free and a digital copy is super cheap. So after visiting Santa there last year we decided to make it an annual event for the kids because they have lots of fun.
This is the picture with Santa from Winter Wonderland this year. We did try a picture with Ashlyn on Santa's lap but she turned around stared at him for about 10 seconds then turned and looked at Jay and I and wailed so needless to say that picture didn't look so great. And Sarah was not about the sit on Santa's lap maybe next year. Even with all the particular age groups our kids are this year we thought the picture was quite cute.
Colton's absolute favorite activity there was shooting the lasar BB gun. He was actually pretty good. Now he keeps asking Jay when he gets to go hunting. I just keep thinking about the Christmas movie when the little boy wants a BB gun and the adults just tell him he is going to shoot his eye out. HaHa!! But I think Colton will be a good hunter and that will be a great bonding activity for Colton and Jay when he gets a little older.
Ashlyn was just happy to be there! All smiles!
As for Sarah she is more of the off-roader type. Roughing it in her princess heels and fancy clothes, can't you just see it?! :) But I think she would have liked this jeep a little better if it were pink.
We have fun every time we go to the Bass Pro Shop, there is so much to do and so, so much to see.
