~Trips Taken~

David Cole House 1885 in Portland, Oregon

After seeing Santa we continued on through the train display. From what I was told, kids used to be able to ride the train above the Santa and Christmas display. Macy's did a remodel and they didn't hook the train back up, so now it's on display and the kids and parents can sit in it and do pictures. There were so many people around and kids running everywhere we weren't really able to get a good shot of the train, but we did get some shots of Skylar in the train and of the snowman. Maybe next year we will get a good shot of the train, if we are still in Oregon.

When we first arrived at the Santa display we were greeted with Stormtroopers that were guarding the door. Skylar absolutely loved the fact that one Stormtrooper was wearing reindeer ears like he was.

Waiting in line can be so boring to a four year old. And trying to find things to do to pass the time got boring as well.

Finally we get to see Santa and the waiting in line was worth it all. Skylar told Santa he wants a tractor for Christmas and some more trains to add to his ever growing Thomas the Train collection. With over 382 trains in his collection, I hope Santa brings me some more storage boxes for them. Ha!
