Santaland at Macys

Today we decided to go back to try and see Santa at Santaland in Macy's.  By no one's fault but my own I assumed that Santa would be there right when the store opened.  So we all took a cab in the rain down to Macy's and was there by 7:15am...(Scott stayed in the taxi and went to work from there)....Santa didn't show up until 9.  After waiting about 2 hours we finally were ready to see Santa.  Santaland was amazing and had lots to look at which was really neat.  We even sent our letters to Santa in the mailbox.  Mikey wanted a green yoyo and a small remote control snow plow truck.  Katie said she wanted a pillow.  When Santa was in site Mikey flipped out....total kicking and screaming tantrum, flailing on the floor.  Yup!  Katie didn't mind sitting on Santa's lap at all.  Not exactly how I envisioned our trip to see Santa going but it's a good story to tell.  After that I walked all the way from 7th and 34th (Macy's), home in the light rain...not sure I'll be doing that again.  We stopped at Dylan's Candy Bar for lunch on the walk home.

Train before you enter Santaland.

Sending our letters to Santa.

Hum....she wasn't quite sure.

Mikey wanted nothing to do with Santa.
