This past weekend flew by in a moment but I know that I will remember it for years to come. Robby and I went to see Trans-Siberian Orchestra's Christmas show on Friday evening. Traditionally we have gone to see The Nutcracker, but this year we decided to switch things up and to try a new experience with TSO. We had a great time but I am not certain that TSO will become part of our annual tradition.
The first portion of the show was themed on a Christmas Eve story. This left Robby and me, along with seemingly most of the audience, confused and unimpressed. Thankfully the story portion only lasted for about an hour, allowing the orchestra another hour to redeem the show. The second portion of the performance was AMAZING! Between the songs, the energy, the lasers and the fire, we were thoroughly entertained.
While I was at the show with Robby, Timmy was busy holiday shopping with my sister. He loves shopping for people and he was excited to find surprises with his Aunt. She even surprised him with a trip to Dave and Busters to play games so, for him, it was the perfect holiday adventure.
On Saturday I met my friend for an afternoon of shopping and just hanging out. It has been a really long time since I've gone shopping with a friend. I certainly haven't been shopping with anybody since the pandemic. I didn't realize how much I missed it until I was doing it again.
Because of the rain and wind we packed up and came home yesterday morning. Today begins the last work week before the holiday. Eeeek. It's hard to believe that Christmas is so close!
