Macy's Santa trip 2009

In 2007, when Mia was still Rosie, Macy's brought back Santa. They decorated their store fronts and wanted to bring people back to St. Louis and remember the good ole days. I was too excited! I loved the idea! So Bia and I loaded Mia up and we were off. I had no idea i could bring my own camera, so my cell phone had to do. and we got a poloroid. and it was FUN! the windows were great. We went last year as well, loading up Mia and Luca and off we went.

I was too excited this year. Mia was really into talking to Santa and Macy's has the best santa. He talks to the kids, you can take your time and really enjoy the Santa experience. oh, and the short lines help as well :) So we get the kids dressed and head down. When we arrive, the place looks empty. really empty. we ask the sales lady where Santa is. "oh, he was here earlier for breakfast, he'll be back next saturday" she says very nonchalantly. what!?!?!? i was livid to say the least. I was sad for Mia who wanted to tell Santa she wanted a hula hoop, sleeping beauty dress and house for her princess dolls. It was too late to go to plaza frontanec because i had to work. So we looked around for awhile and found that Santa had left his sleigh. So, for 2009, we have sleigh pics at macy's minus one santa. We will not have a repeat for 2010, this i know!
