SANTA DAY

Yesterday Brandi and I took Carson and Cassie to Santa Day in Leeds at the Community Center. We made it up town just in time for the last hay ride. It was chilly in the wind, but the kids didn't mind it. Some of the women wanted to sing Christmas carols as we went around town, but ironically nobody knew all the words to any carols except for Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer. When we got done with the hay ride, Santa was already at the Community Center. Cassie was really excited to see Santa and could hardly stand in line waiting for her turn to sit on Santa's lap. Poor Carson didn't like him one bit and wouldn't even sit on his lap. They were running out of food and there wasn't much they had that Carson and Cassie could actually eat except for brownies and bars so Brandi and I went to the restaurant and ate there with the kids.

After lunch, I came home and Darren had to get some stuff in Devils Lake so we headed into town. The weather wasn't too bad when we left and Cassie fell asleep in car not five miles into the trip. We did our quick shopping and then ran to the Pizza Ranch to eat. We swung by April and Kevins to see if they wanted to come eat with us but I had forgotten that they went to that auction in Thompson.

The drive home wasn't too bad but you didn't dare go very fast.

Today we are heading back into Devils Lake to hopefully finish our Christmas shopping. We didn't do it yesterday because we wanted to get home before the weather got really bad. My mom is going to watch Cassie for us that way we can do a little shopping for her too.

~34 Days~
