Last weekend we went out for dinner and then walked around the mall for a bit. First stop was the American Girl store...holy cow. That's all I really have to say about that store, and that it was totally awesome. While walking in the mall we noticed that Santa's workshop was all set up and the sign read that he would be arriving the next day! Holy cow again. So, of course Annie was wide awake bright and early the next morning begging to go see Santa. Tim wasn't up for it and so it was up to me to create the distraction.
Annie - Let's go, let's go, let's go see Santa!!!
Me - Well, it's not even Thanksgiving yet.
Annie - Huh?
Me - Well, the weeks before Thanksgiving...see only bad kids go to see Santa before Thanksgiving. They met to work out agreements to see if they can get off the naughty list in time for Christmas.
Annie - Oh, well...I don't want to see him today then! I'm a good girl!
She hasn't mentioned Santa since. I wonder how long I can continue to make up stories to avoid things. What can I say? It's fun for me plus it works! I guess I forgot to mention that the "packrat" came to our house last week and ate all the Halloween candy....well, they did leave their candy bucket on the floor right there for the snacking on.
