I took the boys to see Santa at Silver Dollar City on Saturday. I guess, 6,000 other people had the same idea. It was insanely crowded and all that we accomplished was seeing Santa.
However, after waiting an hour for Santa to return "from dinner with Mrs. Claus", Sam decided that he was NOT going to talk to Santa or get his picture taken with him.
Desperate times call for desperate measures - so bribery came into play.
"Do you want popcorn?" I inquire. (Sam loves popcorn.)
"No."
"Santa will give you a candy cane."
"NO!"
"Tell Mama what will make you smile with Santa."
"Go to the shooter balls"
Let me just tell you - I hate the "shooter balls"!!!! (The place where you shoot the little foam balls.) The sound of the air rifles gives me an immediate headache, but like I said, desperate times...
"Ok, but only if you smile with Santa."
Good job Sam!!!! Very cute picture.
ReplyDeleteToo bad you couldn't have bribed Santa with the foam balls. He doesn't look too happy. He must have had some bad roast beast with Mrs. Claus.
