When we went to Cherokee in October we took the kids to Santa's Land one day. I remember going to Santa's Land to clog when I was around 10 or 11 years old and I don't think it has changed one bit.
We thought this Elf on the Shelf character was part of the park, but he wasn't. I think it was a little creepy.
Frosty was there too
Of course Santa was there and we had to say hello.
They told him what they wanted for Christmas. We will see if they change their mind the next time they see Santa.

| Charlotte asked for a baby stroller |
 |
| Ellie asked for some Disney dolls |
 |
| Evan asked for Disney racing cars. Evan even "Donald" Santa! |
Poor Evan had been stung by a yellow jacket so his eye was swollen.
We rode the train to the rides.
They rode the Rudicoaster with the creepy Elf on the Shelf. I'm glad his head didn't fly off.
The girls only rode it once and Evan rode it 4 times.
They enjoyed all the rides
Here I am with my Aunt Janice many years ago on this same ride
Daddy & Ellie were the only 2 to ride the Ferris wheel
After the rides we watched the little magic show. Ellie of course volunteered!
We looked at the animals
Saw Baby Jesus
Had pictures made with the Easter Bunny
and this kangaroo.
I remembered this kangaroo from my trip when I was younger and had to try to recreate the picture. I was too big to crawl in his pouch, so this will have to do.
And here is my flashback picture. I think they need to do some paint touch-ups

We ended up buying elf hats or as the kids call them "Orfs".
It was a fun little trip!
