We originally took the kids to see Santa on a Saturday night, with the intentions of seeing Santa, then getting dinner with friends. We get to the mall and get to the Ice Castle, where Santa is at, and the line is huge...probably around a 2 hour wait. So we waited in line for 20 minutes before deciding to just skip Santa and come back on a weekday and just going to one of the restaurants in the mall--Chili's and Max & Erma's had a least a 1 hour wait. So we just left the whole mall area and got dinner.
Skip to the following Tuesday, the line was less than 30 minutes long and the kids had a blast watching the video screens and playing in the fake snow in the Ice Castle! Sophie freaked and just said "No Santa, No..." and wouldn't go near him. Kyin on the other hand, hopped right up and said "Hi Santa!" and told him what he wanted for Christmas. This is the first genuine smile I've gotten in a LONG time :)
