North Pole Experience & Bearizona!

We had the BEST weekend up north with my family!  On Saturday we got to go through Santa's magic portal to the North Pole!!!  The kids loved seeing Santa's workshop, sleigh, bakery, gift wrapping room, Elf University, etc.  They were both excited to see that their names were both on the "nice" list.  Then they got to see Santa!  

On Sunday, we went to Bearizona in Williams, AZ.  We couldn't believe how close the bears came to our Tahoe!!!  We loved watching them eat pancakes and sausage!  The bison, Arctic Wolves, Dall Sheep, and bird show were cool too!

Wyatt was excited to be on the trolley leading to the magic portal!

My niece Tatum and Brody enjoying the ride.

The kids got to dress up these cute teddy bears in Santa's workshop.

They also made these cool rockets!!!

They ate cookies, drank hot cocoa, and sang Christmas carols in the bakery.

We had to get a picture of my mom and dad with these cute elves.  My mom LOVED this gingerbread house inspired tree!

My nephew Eric giving me a thumbs up at Elf University!

In Santa's mail room, the kids got to write a letter to Santa.

Brody loved looking at how many letters Santa has received from the 50 states.

Brody loves maps...he was looking to see what Santa's route might be for delivering gifts around the world.

Cutie pies!

I love my boys!

The boys were thrilled to see that our elf named Elfy had followed us to the North Pole!  We spotted him in every room!!  Cool!

I love this one of Eric and Tatum holding hands as they waited to find out if their names were on the nice or naughty list.

Santa's sleigh was HUGE!!!!!!

We love Santa!!!
The whole gang got in on this picture!!!  :)

When our trolley got back to the hotel, Mrs. Claus was waiting to read the kids a story.

Bearizona...here we come!!
