Cher and I had a REALLY fun day of shopping, eating, driving, chatting, laughing, and taking selfies.
Cher’s pictures are vastly better than mine, so most of these are hers. Except the ones of her, of course, such as the super extra nice ones of her at the Lawson mall food court while I was blinded by the Santa photographer. We didn’t start there, though.
We started with a Tims breakfast, and then hit Value Village for some Christmas presents, some shirts, including a Dunder Mifflin shirt for Brady, a mug, and an artsy print. When I say we “hit” Value Village, I mean that we went, not that we stole. Another couple did, though. And that sucked.
After VV, we went to Lawson. We walked the mall and didn’t end up buying a whole heck of a lot, but we didn’t need to make purchases to enjoy some laughs.
We did, however, get some New Years appies from M&M before we got that lunch I told you about a minute ago.
Something about food court asian food is just SO good, and Lawson has the best of it! We shared a HUGE plate of lunch before we headed out to the next thing!
From there, we went to 8th St and did McNally. Unfortunately we didn’t find what we wanted, but it was just a quick trip over to Indigo! We found some of what we went there for – one of the big important things – and we were about to leave before realizing we hadn’t gotten our token Sbucks drink yet! So we did that, too. Caramel Brûlée lattes this year.
Cher just decided to order what I ordered, and I was SO happy she absolutely LOVED it!
After Indigo, we went further south and shopped that Value Village, where we found yet more Christmas gifts, and a couple of small extras.
Walmart was the big sop, with some groceries, a few heavier things, and a couple of Christmas things. It wasn’t a big shop as in a big haul, but a lot of walking. Cher and I were both absolutely exhausted by the end of it. So, to Montanas we went!!
We were told there would be a half hour wait, and we were absolutely fine to sit and wait for a little. The promising 30 minutes was a lot more like 15, and we moved to a booth. Cher sat sideways to rest her feet and be cute, but she kept whacking her head on the picture behind her, lol!
She didn’t like it, but I did.
We both ordered fish and chips, and I ordered the boozey lemonade they had on special. It was incredible, honestly. Pink lemonade! Yum!
We made one more stop on the way home to pick up a few more appies, and then came home just a few minutes before my mom arrived home with Dekker after their date! Dekker went to bed, and Brady, mom, Cher, and I watched a movie all together until waaaaay too late. We were all BEAT! What a fabulous day it had been!
Thank you for spending a busy day oot and aboot with me, sweet Cherice 💜 I absolutely LOVED spending those hours with you, even with all the hustle and bustle and the occasional overwhelm. We crushed it, with productivity and lightness 💜
I love you and I like you! 💜💚🧡
Merry Christmasdate to yooooou!
