We braved a trip to Jackson with the boys for some quick Christmas shopping. We did all the right things...both boys fed and napped and threatened;) before leaving. The main goal was to get a picture with Santa. We soon discovered that Tyler is a Santa hater and wouldn't have anything to do with the jolly 'ol man. We tried a few stores and even went back, but still no interest. You know I am heartbroken to have missed the photo opportunity!
Ryan won 2 toys in the skill crane and we ventured off for dinner at Ryan's favorite gamery, The Hunt Club. It didn't take long to discover that this was a big mistake as Tyler only wanted to run. He didn't want to just watch everyone play the games, he wanted the hockey pucks and skee balls, and expressed his passion by screaming! We aborted the idea of ordering a meal and finished our drinks while Ryan and Tyler played a few games. We had to grab a few meals at Wendy's before we landed at Meijer. Tyler put up with the stop for about 20 minutes and then wanted to run. Daddy ended up running to truck with a tired, screaming, and kicking little boy. Ryan and I finished up and we all headed home! It looks like we will probably be staying home with the kids for a few months as the experience was nearly miserable. Baghh. 
On a good note: Tyler was all smiles at home trying to throw a ball at the camera and then everyone fell asleep peacefully and pretty early.
