Double The Langlais: NH Trip-Sunday-Santa's Village

We were super exhausted from all our fun the day before (& Sammy decided to pull an all nighter) so we got a late start on Sunday morning. Because it was our last day in the condo, we also needed to pack up and part of the deal was that we would clean up after ourselves as well. Oy! That was a bit much! Trying to clean while 4 boys are destroying what you've just cleaned is a bit difficult to say the least. Dave and I tried a zone defense, but the best distraction was to put them on the porch.

They actually posed themselves here!

The ride was over an hour north. We were pretty much in Canada! The fog was a little nuts, but made the mountains look super pretty.

We got to Santa's Village at around 11:30 so we quickly had lunch and went up to the Ho Ho H20 water park to drop off our cooler, swim suits, and towels. Our plan was to do that part last.

We were right in the neighborhood of the Antique Cars so we hopped on those. They were a bit different. The pedals actually worked! This meant I was in charge of the pedal. We all fit in the same car this time too.

Eli's behind the wheel!

Buy my foot's on the pedal!

Eli's not as tall as the elf yet...

We stopped in to see the big guy.

The BeaNS wanted nothing to do with him...uh oh...

Then they took a ride on his sleigh.

We stopped by to see the real reindeer.

Then we headed back up to the Ho Ho H2O water park. There was a splash pad for the littles...

And a giant contraption that we all went in. If you look at the hole in the middle of the iceberg, you should see Dave & Eli.

Then we needed to grab dinner so we could hit the road and head home (yes, all the way home). While we were eating, the rain started. We managed to avoid it all day, but it caught us on the way out. Eli had been playing the "Elfabet" game where he had a tag that had to be punched at 26 elves around the park. Once the tag was filled, he would get a prize. He and I went to get his prize and Dave headed out to the van to get the BeaNS changed and in their seats.

The smarties that they are make you exit through the gift shop. It was a mob scene! I couldn't decided what to get so I settled on these "grab" gifts...from Santa! The kids opened them when we got to the car.
