Ho! Ho! Ho! at the Bass Pro (Grover Family Christmas Tradition #7)

Last year, Amity had her first visit with Santa at the local Bass Pro. There was a short line, free picture, and a Santa with a real beard so we felt that it was a great deal worthy of repeating this year.

Yesterday afternoon, we headed out to Garland. There was quite a long line to see the man in red so we grabbed some dinner at the in-store restaurant. Amity enjoyed coloring the kids' menu and watching the scuba man clean the gigantic aquarium.

The line was much shorter after dinner and when we asked Amity if she wanted to go see Santa, she would always answer "Yes!" However, as we moved forward in line, she started to get more and more serious and pensive.

This is how the whole thing played out...(only at Bass Pro will you hear gunshots in the background of Santa portraits!).

And this was the result...

Dennis and I were both happy with this picture as we figured that every child needs at least one of these in their collection!

Amity seemed to make a quick recovery once she bid Santa good-bye.

She let her Daddy review the basics of hunting with her.

And even tried on some of the stylish trends that can only be found at Bass Pro.

We can't wait to see what the Bass Pro Santa will do with TWO Grover girls on his lap next year!
