Bronner's Christmas store

Still catching up from our Michigan adventures, and we're home already!

My mom and her husband Troy wanted to have an outing with Kendra and I while we were there, and they gave her some choices.  We originally planned to go to Greenfield Village, which is a neat place that is set up to reinact the way people lived in the 1800's.  The weather was iffy, and it was pretty hot and humid, so we went with our backup plan instead.  Just about 45 minutes north of where my mom lives is a HUMONGOUS Christmas store that is open all year long.  Kendra adores Christmas, and the place was air conditioned, so we headed there. 

This is just a teeny-weeny portion of the store.  They have huge displays all over the place.  When you arrive, they hand you a map because the place is so huge! 

Kendra had to use the Santa Hot Line.  Rumor has it she is asking for a handheld video camera this year...


This is one of Santa's cookies. 


Mom and Troy with the cutest snowman ever!


You have no idea how close I came to buying this one...I took a photo instead.

They have several life sized nativity scenes set up outside.  Kendra has a small collection of nativities already as she loves the Christmas story so much.  The cutest part of this photo is what you don't see...after I took the picture and she got up to get out of it, she kissed her hand and put it on the baby Jesus's head.  Awwwww....so sweet.

My mom ended up doing some early Christmas shopping, as you can find the most unique items here that you can't find anywhere else.  Very neat place!
