We went to Lincoln yesterday to visit the mall for After Christmas Sales. It was my mom and me in one car, and Harold, Beth, Tara, and Tim in another car. We were only marginally successful.
First we had lunch at Culver’s hamburger place. Yum! Then we went to the mall. At the mall, my mom was looking for some white Isotoner gloves she had seen before Christmas. She didn’t find them, but found other gloves she liked. Beth looked at wallets, but didn’t find anything good. Tara picked up all the trash she could find and handed it to the ladies at the cash registers. My feet sweated in my new Crocs shoes.
After the Pesters headed on to Kohl’s, my mom got a new battery for her watch and I got a puzzle.
What was most important, though, is that before they left the mall, Tara and Tim got a ride on the carousel. Yay!
[I recognize that tune: the circus calliope (sp), right?! Your musical ability is ne plus ultra as the Romans might have said.]
Gee, that carousel looks surprisingly not too different from the one at White Marsh Mall. Do you suppose the manufacturers went ahead and made more than one while they were at it?
…and this could make a nice Pester family Christmas card shot for next year, don’t you think? ‘Cept ya’ can barely see poor Harold holding Tim on his horse…..uh…that is Harold, right?
I would have known we were taking the Christmas card picture…I would have worn my green shirt. For photographic interest.
Yay for the mall! I bet it was crazy there, but worth it.
What a fetching new purse Beth has!
It is smashing, isn’t it? 😉
Tim is on my favorite animal – I LOVE the giraffe! I collect them, but I don’t have a carousel giraffe yet, hmmm … Dear Santa, …
My family just loves a crowded mall for hours of endless fun!
