adventures at The Gateway


If you know Tess for the last couple of months you know this is something you would not think she would enjoying doing. In fact it was her idea to run through the fountain. Of course I couldn't get her or her sisters to go through early in the evening, but I was glad that Tess made us do another loop so she could run through. I volunteered to go with her knowing we would be heading home. It was actually a lot of fun wondering when we were going to be drenched by the water.

I so enjoyed just being together walking around Gateway.
  • We took the kids to the apple store where they played a few computer games while I walked around in awe. I can remember what it feels like to kid in the candy store knowing you weren't going to buy anything. The next computer i buy will be a mac.
  • We went to barnes and noble got the best "fresh cookie" ever made. If you have never tried the shortbread cookies there you are missing out. they are the best and are as big as your head.
  • I got chocolate of course at the chocolate factory which i sort of lost to megan. She has such a way of taking your stuff, "i hod (hold) it ok mam." somehow you say "ok" and she's got your chocolate.
  • We took them to the kitchen store, can't remember the name, and let them pick out a cookie cutter each. Bella chose a violin, i thought that was very cool, Tess chose a tea pot, and megan a frog but for some reason Megan's never got to the register.
it was a great night. man i am loving this pre fall weather. i love just being with my family.

That's a cool photo of you and Tess, and I'm completely shocked that she was willing to run through the water. Her phobias seem to come and go don't they? Oh well, I'm sure that made for a much nicer evening out.

Such a great picture! What a fun time going to all the great shops together. Jill keeps telling me about those B&N cookies, I guess I'll have to try one sometime...

I love reading about the fun times you guys have together. That's what family is all about, making sweet memories. Cool nighttime photo of you and Tess. Isn't Meg sad that her frog cookie cutter didn't make it to the register? I would think she'd be way upset.
