Santa's Village

We had a fantastic trip to Santa's Village in NH this weekend. For the two weeks leading up to the trip, all Zoe could talk about was petting a reindeer. I think her idea of what a reindeer would look like and what a reindeer actually looks like were quite different. So when she saw one- she looked at me with a furrowed brow and said, "That's not a weindeer. That's a moose."

In an effort to convince her the reindeer were nice, Daddy did something that only Daddy would do: kissed the reindeer. Gross. Eeeew. Yuck.







Some of my favorite moments from the weekend:

  • Zoe pointing to the 3 wise men in the life-sized manger exhibit and exclaiming, "Mommy, look at those princesses!" (I can understand that robes may have looked like gowns, but since when do princesses have beards??)
  • After securing Zoe on the carousel, I started to climb up on a horse of my own. That's when Zoe informed me, "Hey Mommy, this ride is for little butts."
  • At the tail end of the 3 hour road trip, I finally told miss miss bossy pants in the back seat that mommy doesn't take orders from a 2.5 year old, to which she replied in a mocking, sing-song voice, "Oh yes you doooooo."
Here are some photos from the adventure. (Click pics to launch album.)
