Hubby parked the car in the field, and we walked to the ticket counter. There, we purchased our tickets and were told we could take our time strolling the grounds before entering the Castle.

Ava and I enjoyed listening to and dancing to the music played at the Looney Tunes Area, featuring Wylie Coyote, Road Runner, Daffy Duck, Tweety Bird, Sylvester, Yosemite Sam, and the Tasmanian Devil.

SantaLand is home to Santa Claus, Mrs. Claus, Reindeer, and many other characters.
Ava loved all the outdoor decorations but wanted to go inside because it was a bit chilly outside.

Ava went right up and sat in Santa's lap. She told him what she wanted for Christmas.
She told Santa, and we continued walking through the Castle.

We took a few pictures inside and walked outside.
We could hear the Chipmunks singing in the distance. Ava said they were singing too loudly.

Santa took Ava's hand, and they walked outside, stopping to see the Reindeer.

We walked around outside some more. It was damp and cold outside, so we
went back inside.
We bought Ava a gingerbread cookie and took it to a table to be decorated. On each table were three different colors of icing to be used for decorating the cookies. We used green for the eyes, red for the buttons, and trimmed him in yellow. He was yummy and sweet.
