Family Date Night

In my infinite wisdom, I decided the heading to Destiny USA in Syracuse (the fifth-largest mall in the U.S.) two weeks before Christmas would be the ideal way to spend a Saturday evening. Mind you, we had no shopping to do - I just though dinner and a little exploration was in order.

Whoops.

It was crazy. I mean really crazy.

After about 15 minutes, we found a parking spot, and the rest is history.

We ended up having a really great time. We opted for the early bird special at the Gordon Biersch Brewery (to avoid absurd wait times later), let Jackson explore a few toy stores, checked out the go-cart track, and window shopped a few stores we couldn't afford to step into.

It turned out to be family bonding at its greatest. Here's to dumb ideas that turn out ok.

Merry Christmas, from our family to yours!
