When Nate and I stayed downtown for the night we saw that Macy's had a Santa Village. We thought it would be fun to bring Andrew to see it so a few days later, we drove downtown and spent the morning as a family. We kept telling Andrew that we were going to see Rudolph and the reindeer and he was so excited. He likes Santa, but the reindeer were a little more exciting to him this year :) He's always saying "Mommy sing me Ruolph!" There was a huge line at Macy's to see Santa, so we just walked into the village area. He loved it! He kept saying "Ruoph" and "Reineer." We didn't spend a lot of time in the village, maybe 15 or 20 minutes, but Andrew loved every minute of it! We then ventured over to Pioneer Place and he had fun riding the escalators up and down with Daddy. We walked by Santa several times and asked him if he wanted to go see him and every time he said no. We didn't want to force him to, so there will be no Santa picture this year. We decided to have some chocolate at Moonstruck and watch Santa from a bench close by. Andrew was very excited about his snowman chocolate that was really a penguin :) He had one bite, loved it, then stuck the whole thing in his mouth. I think he realized it was too much so he spit it out and gave it to me. After wondering around for awhile, watching all of the fire trucks, buses, and train tracks (the MAX bus) we decided to call it a morning and head home. Hopefully we will try to make this a new family tradition!
