Day 50 - Round 2 of shopping

Since Allie did such a good job yesterday, I was able to convince Brad to go shopping with us today. We headed out to the mall since I wasn't able to make it yesterday. It wasn't nearly as crowded as I thought it would be. Afterward, we headed to Toys R Us and by the time all was said and done, we got most of our Christmas shopping done. What? It's not even December yet and Brad and Jennifer have almost all their Christmas shopping done? No...yup - we're getting old!

We went to Red Robin for dinner and Allie started to cry a bit, but we managed to work through it. I proved to Brad that no exit strategy was needed...you just deal with it. And we did - she quit crying and we were able to eat and then head home. Another successful day of shopping!

On a side note - we are missing a fish! One of our guppies...my favorite fish...went missing. No dead fish body floating around, it just up and vanished. I think Kitty got a hold of it and had it for dinner, but there is no evidence. Brad is convinced she is innocent until proven guilty...but there is no other explanation.

Here are some photos that Brad snapped tonight...he did a good job!
