Sunny 9 for 2004 December 10

Tonight Aaron and I are going on our first real date since Lily was born. Booner is babysitting, and we are going to Sandy for my work company party. I am hoping that I get a door prize (last year they gave DVD players and other electronics, and hotel stays at the Mariott, ect.) I think the food will be good too. Last time, the food was terrible and everyone complained.

Yesterday was nice. Aaron and I went Christmas shopping together. It is rare for us to be able to spend time during the day, or anytime really before 8:30pm with our schedules. I picked out some of my presents- a red peacoat on sale for $34 at Old Navy and this way cute black and white bouclay skirt from the Gap that is sooo cute. The skirt was on sale too. I also got Lily this red velour skirt that is so cute that she will wear on Christmas. I wanted to get the matching onesie that had a tiny holly, candy cane, and Christmas tree on it but it was a little expensive and she could only wear it in Dec. I practiced self discipline not to get it b/c I really wanted to get the festive outfit that she would look so cute in, but you can't buy everything. Oh well, that is what grandmas are for.
