Saw Santa and the elves this weekend

Yesterday we all went to Macy's and saw the Holiday display and then Santa. Todd brought Chad and Cameron over for an early supper. They got to the house as my girls' playdate was ending. Back to Back fun proved a little much for Ella. Instead of eating with us, she fell asleep on the big chair. She did tell me a sandwich would be ok for later.

After dinner we got everyone ready. When I put Ella in the car she got very upset and wanted her blanket but I made a bad decision and told her the car would warm up soon. Ella cried the whole way to the train station. Oh Happy Day. I even told her Santa would put her on the naughty list but she didn't stop until we met back up with Todd in the parking lot. She also ate her sandwich on the train into Downtown Mpls and that helped alot.

We got to Macy's about the same time as the Hollidazzle parade. There was no one in Macy's so we were able to enjoy the display without any issues.

Here is the whole group of us. We look a little flat because its a picture of a picture.
Cameron, Ella and Elizabeth. Cameron is so cute - he calls both girls Ella because Elizabeth is too hard for him to say. We really had alot of fun with him.
Elizabeth and Ella wanted to eat lunch on the table in Elizabeth's back room so I complied.
The girls had alot of fun with Eli and Lucy and can't wait to have them over again soon. They all did well and I got to enjoy some relaxing TV time. -)
