Last Tuesday Grandma, Mia, Annie and I went to visit Santa at Macy's on State Street. Mia was so brave, went right up and sat on Santa's lap. Annie opted to wait next to me but afterwards went up next to Mia to see Santa. Mia told Santa she wants "barbies and books that I don't have". Afterwards we had lunch in the famous Walnut Room. The girls each were visited by the princess fairies too and made wishes and were sprinkled with Fairy Dust! Since it was nice out we walked over to Daley Plaza to see the Christkindle Market and the nativity scene and Christmas tree. It was a fun afternoon and a fun tradition. We went so early in the season because last year it was insanely crowded. We took the girls before school let out! It makes me sad that Marshall Field's is now Macy's but the Walnut Room hasn't changed and it's a great tradition that the girls will enjoy each Christmas.
