We started off our holiday by going to 8th floor Macy's in downtown Minneapolis. The theme this year was "Santa's Little Helpers." It has been our tradition every year to attend the Macy's festivities---and this was BY FAR the best one I've seen. Jason agrees too. Cale also enjoyed himself--there was so much fun stuff to look at--everything was so animated, it was like he was in his own tiny little village! In this picture, he couldn't get enough of the animated animals--you'll see them in the next picture---he especially liked the polar bear and walrus!
Here, Cale was showing Daddy the singing Christmas trees and the little bunny that was directing them....
Not the greatest picture of the singing Christmas trees, but they were SOOOO dang cute! My favorite part of the whole thing!
Cale and Grandma "T" pointing out all of Santa's Little Helpers!
Of course we can't get a family picture with EVERYONE looking.....that dang Cale!
Me and my hubby!!!! (luv ya babe!)
Cale actually tried climbing up into Santa's workshop here...he was ready to start riding the rocking horse and jump into the candy cane machine!
In this picture, some of Santa's elves were climbing up a ladder carrying presents and he kept saying "uh-oh, fa" (uh-oh, fall) cuz he was afraid they were going to fall off the ladder. He was probably just more concerned that the presents were going to fall!
And our last picture at Macy's -- Cale loved the snowman and the little racoons pulling off his hat behind him...
HO HO HO--Merry Christmas! Jason told Cale he had to put cookies out for Santa. The only cookies in the house were Cale's fig newtons, so those had to do. In the morning, we showed Cale that all the milk was gone and the bitten cookies and tried to explain to him that Santa must have come cuz he ate the snack....but I think the little Santa doll had him confused cuz I think he thought that the doll ate the cookies!
The rest of the pictures are of some of Cale's favorite Christmas presents.....let me just say...Santa was very very good to our little boy---as well as all of our friends and family! He is so lucky to loved by so many! Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!
This GeoTrax Grand Central Station was his big present from Santa---it's been quite a hit with both of my boys!!! Yes, even my 31 year old husband has found a second hobby!
Another hit with both of my boys was the big remote control truck from Uncle D and Andrea! Although now that Cale sees how fast it goes, he doesn't favor it as much as his Daddy does!
Another big hit...his Handy Manny tool set--with handy tool belt
