Our Day







Today we spent the morning at the house just wondering around. Setting up Christmas stuff and wrapping up presents. We did some laundry and some dishes. We set up our Christmas tree which is actually a rosemary bush that we bought at Harold's Christmas Trees in the Quarter on Sunday. After Chance's nap we went to the Mall on the Westbank. The mall has been closed since the storm and just reopened a few weeks ago. I have been looking forward to checking out this mall because it is closer to the house than the mall we have been going to which is a huge mega mall that yes has everything you need but also gives you a headache everytime you walk through the doors. So I am happy that this one is open and new and clean with the basic stores I need and none of the crap. They also have highchairs in the food court which is really nice. I got some bourbon chicken, I haven't had any of that in a long time and Chance had yogurt and some of my chicken and we sat there in the mall food court and had a nice lunch. We bought some Christmas presents for some people (we can't say who.) Chance was really good at the mall though he was ready to get out and hang out in the highchair. We came home after the mall and it was starting to get dark, I had not idea we had been there that long. After we got home and ate dinner Dan and Patrick came by and we all walked to the little convienience store a few blocks away. Chance was so happy in his carrier he talked the whole way there and back even though it was chilly outside. The first two pictures are of Chance eating in the food court, the second picture is blurry but I love how you can see how happy he is in it. The third picture is when we got back home form walking to the store tonight and again you can see his happy face. I think he is 100% again. He was sick for a few days and then it seemed to linger as a cough and general ickyness but now I think it is all gone he is back to his happy little self now. The last picture is of our little Christmas tree. I could never get a really great picture of it because I am not sure which settings to use but it is cute and I put little mini ornaments on it too.

I haven't been here in a while but that picture down there of Chance in the window watching his dad strip the door is the cutest thing EVER!

If you use the night scene mode setting on your camera the flash will fire but also leave the shutter open long enough to capture the lights on the tree.
