We have no fear of Santa at the Running household! After waiting in line for about 45 minutes Kennedy was quick to get up on his lap and tell him she wanted a Matchbox Criss Cross Crash race track, princess dresses and princess shoes. Her wish list has been consistent for a while so Santa knew exactly what to get Kennedy but Santa had no idea what a hot item Criss Cross Crash was this year! I helped him check all the websites including Target, Toys R Us, Wal-mart, Mattel, Sears and Shopko along with combing the toy aisle during each trip to Target the past couple weeks. "Out of stock" and "currently unavailable" was all we could find until...it dawned on me we hadn't checked Kmart. Honestly, I forget Kmart is still around. Well, Kmart is now one of my favorite stores because they had Criss Cross Crash and for the small price of $16.80 in shipping Santa will deliver on 12/24. Thank you Santa and thank you Kmart! Not only was the Criss Cross Crash rough but finding a Disney Princess Dress-Up Trunk wasn't easy either! I could spend $20/outfit at Target but I stumbled on this $19.99 trunk containing THREE outfits in a Shopko ad but everyone else in Omaha must have spied it as well. Again, no luck online until a link for Mills Fleet Farm popped up (for my NE family and friends that have no idea what Mills Fleet Farm is; think of a cross between Tractor Supply and Menards with a lot of hunting stuff). I sent my dad on a mission to the Mills in St. Cloud and he scored Kennedy a Disney trunk. Thank you Grandpa Harvey!
Marissa did great on Santa's lap as well. We'll see how she feels next year but I hope she follows in her sisters footsteps. When I asked Kennedy what Marissa would like for Christmas she said Marissa would also like to play with Criss Cross Crash. I bet I know what Chris and Kennedy will be playing with on Saturday morning.
