I've heard a lot of good things about the HUGE Yankee Candle store in Williamsburg, but I'd never been there. After being at the day care everyday for a few weeks, Luke and I were ready to get out of the house. So on Saturday (while Jared was taking a test!) I talked my friend Nora into coming to Yankee Candle with me.

Luke and I in line waiting to see Santa.
Luke and Santa
Well I think the Santa was awesome. He almost looks like the real thing, and he was really nice. Luke didn't smile, but on the upside he also didn't cry. I think I might go back to try for some better photos. The "professional" lady got a really good one, but they cost $25 for two 5X7's and I wasn't going to pay that! Nora took this photo while the "professional" was taking hers. Thanks, Nora!
At Yankee Candle they have a whole Christmas section that is open year round. In that room it really snows! And they have a bridge that goes over some fake water that changes colors. Luke liked standing on the bridge and watching the "water." There is a big train set that goes around the top of a few rooms. Luke liked watching that too. Overall it was fun to go and see, but I wouldn't buy anything there. Pricy! They actually had a harness of bells for sell. Guess how much it cost? 400 DOLLARS! If I had that kind of money, I could think of something WAY more cool to spend my money on.

You mean he isn't the Real one?!!!
I LOVE that place! We took the kids to see Santa too. I love all of the stuff they have in there too! The kids had fun and want to dip a candle every time we go there. (Which isn't that often by the way!)
