Earlier in the week, I got an e-mail from Monkey Bizness that Santa would be making an appearance at Family Night this week. With the chaotic nature of our schedules this summer/fall/winter, we haven't been to Monkey Bizness in quite a while. My poor, deprived child. So I couldn't pass up the {FREE} chance to see Santa - no way was this mama paying $20 at the mall for someone else's attempt at a picture. So we paid the $5 fee for family night and played until our feet hurt. My brother and his girlfriend joined us, and we had a great time!
Carter had to show his Uncle Dana the BIG slide.
And the BIG slide didn't disappoint. That sucker will put your heart up in your throat in 1.2 seconds! But Carter really loves it.
No, really! Let me zoom in on that shot for you:
He may look scared, but he's ready to climb back up to the top the second he hits the bottom of the slide.
After we played for a bit, we got in line to go visit Santa. There were lots of kids, so Carter made his way up and down the line, comparing Santa requests for toys. Turns out, several of the other boys were also dinosaur freaks. Carter made instant friends. When it came time for our turn with Santa, it took some talking into just to get Carter up on Santa's lap. But once he was up there, he chatted Santa's ear off, and the dog's!
It really was a great night - I'm glad he didn't go running off scared of Santa!
