So we heard about this cute house near us, where the owners decorate their entire house for Christmas, dress up as Santa, offer hot chocolate & cookies and welcome kids on weekends. Oh, and their house is basically a mansion. And this was the last year they were going to do it due to their ages and health. So we decided to give it a shot and try it out while we had the chance. It turned out to be a giant parent fail. We got there and the entire neighborhood was basically shut down due to all the traffic. We had to park super far away and walk up a lot of long hills in the dark to get there. Oh, and I had dressed the kids in their jammies since I thought that would be fun. It was cold, it rained on us several times during the HOUR AND A HALF we waited in a giant line to get in. Then I'm guessing we built it up too much in our heads, because we were disappointed and thought the whole thing was a bit weird. Didn't see Santa, didn't see any hot chocolate or cookies. But we made some memories. Oh and when we got home, I discovered that Lucy and Henry were running high fevers. Oops.
My not so happy campers.
