Today we took Bridget to meet Santa. We weren't sure is he was even going to be in town yet cause usually he is out in the open so everyone can come see him, but when we got there, he was no where in sight. As we were looking for him, this lady at Hallmark was standing out front of the store pulling faces at Bridget, then she walked up to me and (freakishly) whispered in my ear, "Can she have a candy cane?" I said sure and she went in and pulled a huge one off of the shelf, tore the price tag off of it, and handed it to Bridget. She was very excited. Josh asked her if she knew when Santa would be at the Mall (if he was) and she said that he was there now, and just up and left her store to be our personal guide to the North Pole! Josh and I were a little weirded out, but we kept following her. She first took us to the gift wrapping shop thinking that that's where he was at. The workers there said that Santa comes to help wrap presents... She then continued the wild goose chase asking anyone around... at this point I was again confused why she decided to be our guide.
Long story short...
( Santa IS at the Mall! He is there from 10 am to 9 pm up until Christmas Eve in the old Head over Heals store.)
Bridget wasn't quite ready to sit on his lap, but he did give her a little book! Josh is planning on wearing a white beard around so next time, She might be ready.
...so... who's finishing up all the toys while Santa's at that mall all month???

Josh is going to wear a white beard around? That is SO funny!
where is the picture??? I wanted to see Bridget with Santa... So was the candycane candy or a decoration? I guess someone was in the Christmas spirit at the mall! Great Story!
yeah it was a candy candycane that was almost an inch thick and maybe 8 or nine inches tall. huge!
we went to the mall the other day and didn't see Santa any where. It was kinda sad they shouldn't hide him that's no fun. good job Bridget on the candy cane score!!
i like the lady in the story that was "freakishly" weird. funny thing is, i can see mom doing something like that. i'm excited to take the kids up to see santa. pretty sure lucy will cry...
