catching up..

So yesterday was full of excitement! Shopping with the girls was a blast! I have to explain to you this mall!! Well it's not even a mall; it is a department store. This department store takes up two city blocks!!! And has 3 buildings too it!! The one building is 7 stories high! It' is huge! The whole center of it is taken out so when you walk in you can see 5 floors! It is huge. One hour was just enough time to browse 6 floors, not look just see what is where. haha. It is wayyy overwhelming!

Soooo then I came back here got ready within 15 minutes. I was running a little late but made sure I was still ready to leave at 6:30.. I walk over to the boy's rome and they aren't ready!! They figured that I wasn't even back yet, so then I had to wait another 15 minutes. We hopped on the Metro, meet up with Jim's family and headed off to Gerry's!

Gerry's was great!! He sang and played the baby grand piano. It was soo much fun! After that we went to see Notre Dame all lit up at night!!

This morning we attended mass there at an International Mass. It was HUGE! We could barely see the priest up front! It was a great experience. There was a cardinal there. I'm not real sure who he was, but John was surprised he was here.

After that we visited a small museum. There were no specific works in this one that we were looking at, just browsing the whole thing.

Then souvenir shops! These were just along the roads, some nice little gifts we bought for our families.

We came back here ate dinner and were going to meet up with Jim & his family. He wasn't feeling too well, so I went to bed after dinner and got up and wanted to update you!! It was a nice few hours of extra sleep that was definitely needed!!

Well, tomorrow we don't have anything planned until 2:00 PM!! WOO HOO!! :) We are going to meet Gerry at his house and hop in his car and head to a monument. I forget how it's spelled, so I'm not even going to try! hah :)

Have a great night everyone! Sorry there were no pictures again, I forgot to download them onto my computer earlier! I will do that tomorrow!


God Bless.
