Neiman Marcus in downtown Dallas is known for their holiday window displays. This year, they decorated in a space monkey theme, complete with rockets, monkey astronauts, robots, stars, interactive tv screens and tunnels. After church and lunch, Grandma and I headed downtown with the unknowing kids. We only told them we were going to do a Christmas fun thing. When they saw the big downtown buildings, I think they were convinced we were about to do some seriously boring holiday shopping. Once we drove past the windows (trying to park downtown) they started to clue in. At first, they blew right past looking at the windows, and went straight to the tunnel entrance. They were able to actually climb through the playground style tubes in the windows, out of the windows and interact with tv screens. After about 3 times through, they finally slowed down enough to see the windows and enjoyed the displays.
In addition to the cool exterior window displays, Neimans had one of the best Santas. We went into the store to just look around, then discovered that Santa was actually sitting behind the fabulous rocket in the window. More to come about Santa in the next post.
We had a blast!! Thank you to Grandma for suggesting this nugget of holiday fun!
Let's go!!
