Making New Memories

I think I've become a real stick in the mud.  I like curling up with a blanket and a movie in the evening and falling asleep on  the couch.  (This way I never run out of movies to watch as I never actually see them.)

When our daughter's friend called Saturday night and asked if we'd like to go to Bentleyville for the evening I did the unthinkable, I said yes. And I'm glad I did. 

The snow was falling and the temp was a perfect 18 above.  It was beautiful.
Bentleyville is a village of lights set up every Christmas season down on the Bayfront.  Admission is free and you are offered free hot chocolate, cookies, popcorn and marshmallows to roast.
Here's our daughter and her friend.
The lit walkways are beautiful.

Afterwards it was up to Buffalo Wings for snacks.  We've decided to make this a new tradition.  We're meeting here next year, same time. 

It's time to try new things and make new memories.
