Finally, a little warmup

Yesterday the temperature reached freezing.  That's a big improvement over sub-zero temperatures. We went to Oak Brook and ran a few other errands.  I picked up a nice new winter jacket at Macy's.  It was just what I was looking for and there was only one.  Jill said it was just waiting there for me.

We noticed as we drove around that there were a lot of geese at several places just sitting in the snow. Can't imagine how they can do that.

On the spur of the moment we asked Keir and Lori if they wanted to meet us for dinner at Papadeaux for dinner. They came and of course brought the girls.  We got there at 5:30 and there was already a wait. The kids were both great though.  Even little Scarlett managed to hang in there for the wait and through dinner. There were strolling musicians.  They came to the table and played an Elmo song and Itsy Bitsy Spider.  The girls thought it was great fun.  We all had a wonderful meal and a great time.

Came home and watched the movie "Lucky You"; it was pretty good.
