”Until you do not see any cars coming from either direction” I answer as I catch up to her and I prompt her by giving her a tap on the shoulder that it was ok to cross. The driver pops the trunk to the limo, placing our suitcases inside and shutting it back. I get in to find Angie already opening a bag of candy that I’m sure my Secret Santa had left ”Don’t eat more than one piece Angie. You’ll get sick” I say to her and she rolls her eyes at me. Again just like Bette.

I sigh and get situated in my seat as I look and see a letter addressed to me in the door holder. I open the envelope take the letter out and look at Angie ”Would you like for me to read the letter Santa wrote? I ask as she nods and jumps into my lap situating herself and leans her head back against my chest clutching the bag of Hershey’s kisses in her hand. I chuckle and began to read.

Hello Tina!,

You and Angelica are headed to the North Pole! Well maybe not to my home but you are going to Colorado Springs, Colorado and will be staying in a cabin near Pikes Peak. Nestled there is an amusement park called Santa’s Workshop at the North Pole. I have arranged for you and Angie to spend several days enjoying everything the park has to offer. Surprises will be included!

Once you arrive at the cabin you will be staying in, you will not have a way to leave but the Ranger station will retrieve you both when you are ready to head out into the city for your other planned adventures. The cabin will be stocked with enough food and necessities to last you both for several weeks. If you find there is something that you need let the Ranger station know and they will get it to you.

There are great things in store for you once you land in Colorado Springs! There will be a driver waiting for you when you retrieve your bags. He will be holding a sign with your name on it! I will be in touch.

Until next time!
