Breakfast with Santa

At Incredible Pizza!

I got an email invite from Incredible Pizza to bring my kids to eat breakfast with Santa, so Ova and I decided to make a whole family day out of it.  We woke up bright and early and headed over to Incredible Pizza for some Christmas fun.  We were planning on being there for a few hours....but the time just flew right by and before we knew it 7 hours had passed....hahaha  we all had so much fun spending time together as a family!!  The deal for the breakfast with Santa was it included the buffet, crafts, entertainment and pictures with Santa for only $5 a kid...not to shabby.  It didn't mention that they were giving $ towards the games, but I knew once we were there the boys were going to want to play.  I get an email every once in a while from Incredible Pizza, usually with special deals or coupons....well luckily the last two emails I got were actually surveys on how they can improve and if you took the survey, you got a FREE $10 game card for one and a FREE $5 for the other.  The emails came to both Ova's and my email so I took the surveys twice and BAM....$30 in games for FREE!!  Score! 
We arrived there and the first thing we did was get settled and hit the buffet.  They had everything you could think of for the breakfast buffet....pancakes, french toast, biscuits & gravy, eggs, bacon, cinnamon rolls, fruit.....pretty much anything and everything you want for breakfast...
Mone & Daddy
Mommy & Makai
Baby Lautala

They had several different crafts there that the kids could make, so after we ate we headed over to the craft room.  I really wanted them to spend some time making the crafts, but their minds were totally in the game room and they really had no interest in doing the crafts.....Ova told me not to make them because that kind of stuff is for girls......whatever!!......they decided (not very happily) that they would do ONE craft, just to make me happy.....so they chose to do the cookie decorating one...


After their ONE craft they did (and don't ever....right after they walked out of the craft room Makai threw his cookie in the garbage....little punk)....it was time to go and see Santa Claus.  We waited in line for a while until we finally got to the front of the line....I was trying to snap a picture of the three of my kids, but I never seem to get a good one....again while we were in line, wasn't able to snap a great one....

Makai's hiding in one....Lautala's irritated in another....uugghh
We finally got up to Santa and the kids got to take pictures with him...
He had a little present for each of the kids after they sat on his lap and told them what they wanted for Christmas....they each got a little coloring book and a $5 game card.....hahaha we had $45 in games for FREE!!  Yay!!
They also had face painting there.....Makai wanted to be a white tiger and Mone a blue monkey....

We spent the rest of the time on the games.....the boys had TONS of fun (by boys I mean my kids and Ova...hahaha) and Lautala and I had fun watching them and taking pictures....they played almost every single game in that whole place, they rode the rides and played some of their favorite games again! 

Just goofing around...
We had a lot of fun!  After we were done with all the $ on our game cards....we went and cashed out our points and the boys got to take home like four little toys....we went back and ate lunch at the buffet....and then our fun-filled day at Incredible Pizza was done!!
