A Yankee Candle Co. Experience......

Good Morning Ladies....how are you ....Yesterday my sister and brother-in-law surprised us with a phone call in the early afternoon inviting us to take a drive with them to one of my ALL TIME FAVORITE places YANKEE CANDLE COMPANY in Williamsburg

This store is almost as big as a theme park....complete with every season of candle you could ever dream of...

As you exit the Candle store into the courtyard of the building ...it is set up like a mini "MAIN STREET AMERICA"....in the middle is this huge clock with animated characters singing about the days left before Christmas...ADORABLE....

This Fountain sits in front of the clock as a centerpiece to specialty shops surrounding the courtyard....like fudge...popcorn  and coffee shops

These tables in the middle of the courtyard were sweet....they reminded my of Disneyland...

This is the entrance to their Christmas Shoppe...

My brother-in-law standing at the bridge ....wistfully taking it ALL IN...

Of course they had Santa's Workshop....

Complete with smiling elves waiving hello...

Wasn't I surprised to see Santa sitting there as well......I thought for sure he'd be working on all the toy's he'll need for Christmas...I asked if I could take his picture for my blog...being the jolly man he is ....he agreed ...AND ...asked me what the name of my blog was...YES GIRLS SANTA IS COMPUTER SAVVY..........he said as I was leaving ....I want to wright that down...I will check it out....So Santa in case your reading this....THANKS FOR THE HOSPITALITY...don't forget to look for the plate of cookie's ... we'll put out just for you on Christmas Eve....

Well that's it for today girls...I hope you enjoyed looking around with me...I have to tell you our temp's dropped this weekend over 30 degrees bringing HEAVY rain fall too...it was FABULOUS.......I thank the Lord for family time....travel mercies ....all the smiles he gave us....and for you girls....I look forward to sharing  with you so much...blessings and hugs.........Karena

  2. Karena- What a fun visit! I have never been to that factory but I ALWAYS buy Home Sweet Home Yankee candles in the Fall and burn them right through the winter. It is my all time favorite! Glad you had fun AND you met Santa. Gotta love a man with a white beard! xo Diana
