Santa's Bag 2011

Alicia had the grand idea to try playgroup at Santa's Bag in Imaginion on Wednesday. The kiddos did surprisingly well in the 1.5 hour line (thanks to Mama Kathryn and Mama Anne I got to sneak in line with them otherwise our wait would have been a good 2 hours). Next year activities and snacks need to be in tow...we were such novices this year.

at Santa's Bag the kids are guided through a storefront by an elf in search for gifts they need on their list. I gave Aston and Mei an allowance of $20 and sent them on there way to pick out a slew of gifts for friends and family. I'm so curious what they picked out...this could be my favorite gift I get this year.

There was a Santa set up upon exit. The kiddos got to spend quality time with him and had plenty of time to explain all the gifts they would like for Christmas. For some reason there was no line for Santa...yippy for us!
