St. Anthony Park is a cute part of town not too far from where we live and it turns out they have a very fun little Christmas celebration so we checked that out with some of our neighbors. Santa and some of his reindeer were there and a store had some cookies to decorate. Linnea took a cute picture sitting on Santa's lap and told him she wanted a dollhouse...which sounds much easier for the elves to make than the thinga ma jigger she told a previous Santa she wanted. She also enjoyed the sleigh ride, decorating cookies and the hot cocoa bar :)
We had a quick lunch when we got home and the girls took naps so they could have energy for our night in downtown Mpls. My parents got to our house a little after Linnea woke up and we all headed to the Holidazzle Parade together. It is such a fun and bright parade! Linnea got to see it all from papa's shoulders.
We met up with our good friends the Wallins too.
Everything was perfect except there was no snow and we parked in a ramp that took FOREVER to get out of. We even stalled in Target riding the escalators up and down.
Oh well...we had a new Christmas cd to listen to in the car and some holiday m&m's.
We helped my parents do some decorating after church and Sunday School the next day...seems I spend plenty of Sundays at my parents house since Chris has started working weekends and Linnea has been going to Sunday School with my mom. I feel very lucky to have that option!
