Minnesota Fun #2

This after noon we rode the subway train into downtown Minneapolis to the shopping district. There is an 8 story Macy's there and the 8th floor is a Christmas wonderland entitled "A Day in the Life of an Elf".

Everyone had a blast!

Sam absolutely loves his uncle Chris!

The kids at Macy's





The displays were amazing!


Santa's workshop



The shop beyond these displays had gingerbread cookies for sale. The smell was incredible!




Tonight we are having a date night with Chris and Gail while Chris's sister babysits. We're going to the Mall of America to ride roller coasters! Yes...roller coasters in a mall.

Looks like a huge expansion of those displays we used to look at in the windows of Thorntons.

your trip sounds like so much fun! You all have a great New Years and enjoy being with the ones you love. I have never been to the Mall of America but that is one of my goals in life.

I am so jealous!! The snow looks awesome and it appears the kids are having a blast. I am so glad that you are having fun. I am definitely going to make a trip to the mall of america, but I'll make the trip by air!!
