Tonight, Nate, Elyse and I joined Tom, Jenny and Aiden downtown to go through the Macy's Christmas Production of "The Life of an Elf". Last year just Jenny and I took the kiddos and Elyse missed it all because she was only 3 months and slept through it all. I was super excited to take her this year as well as Nate since he's never seen it. As we got to the entry way, Elyse looked up, said, "Oooooh" and had lots of smiles as shown in the picture below.
Then we walked through the door and this was Elyse's reaction the rest of the time.
As parents Nate and I were disappointed, but we couldn't help the fact that Elyse was terrified of the freaky mechanical elves. Therefore, two years unsuccessful, maybe next year!

HAHA! Mari didn't cry all the way through it, but did have kind of a petrified look the whole time. She wouldn't smile or talk or do anything, she was too scared to move almost!!!!
cute! aiden looks like he wants to say, "you are being such a girl! get over it!"
Please don't take us there!!!! :)Poor thing. I was tramatized at a young age as well. Elyse and I will have to stick together!
Less than a week! Wahoo!
What is Nate going to do on Christmas when he puts his elf hat on? Poor Elyse, did she have any night mares? Precious pictures to put in her album.
Oh no!! I started reading this thinking Elyse was going to have a BLAST (she looks so excited in the first pic!), and then... Reminds me of a book with Santa trauma photos I just saw yesterday. Better luck next year!
Poor girl :( Maybe next year. She was cute nonetheless!
Poor Elyse, maybe next year when she is a little older she may like it.
Love, Grand K
Oh no!!! those elves can be a little scary! she has quite a grip on you! i hope she can handle it next year!
That's too bad Natalie! I can see why she'd find the elves scary. Maybe she would of liked the "Holidazzle" parade better :) Have a merry Christmas!
