a night of lines & lights.
activities with timber bay have been few and far between, so i jumped at the chance to do something when jennie emailed me. jennie did all the coordinating and picking up, i just showed up after work a few wednesdays ago. after cookie decorating and some pizza, we headed off to the marshall field's display.
i remember going to a few when i was younger, and that added to the enjoyment. i was still in awe of certain pieces. some things never change. the lines were long, but moving quickly, which i think was more of a blessing for jennie and i than the girls. patricia, dominique & kymesha took turns taking a few pictures and at the end, convinced jennie and i to take them to see santa. amazingly, the photographer there was willing to let me snap a few pictures, which was nice. now, we'd have a picture for the girls and we wouldn't have to pay ridiculous amounts of money for really crappy prints.
on our way back to the car, we spent a lot of time in the elevator. we couldn't figure out where we had come in, so we rode up and down and tried a new elevator, met a guy who couldn't remember what floor he was on, either and finally, we found it. we drove the girls home and then ourselves. i loved it. fantastic night.
