{special decorations}

Ever since that one November morning, as we rode on the city bus to work, Zack and I knew we just had to visit The General Store downtown. Apparently this is a 25-year-long tradition for the city of Minneapolis for the local radio station to set-up shop in this seasonal store.

We went last night, finally able to meet up with each other after work. The store is only open M-F, 10 am - 7 pm. Since we both work at 9, and since we both get out at different times, the store's hours haven't been too convenient.

Last night, however, we made a point to meet up and visit The General Store.

And my, oohhhhhh my, do they have the cutest things. We were looking for a Christmas ornament that we can say one day, We bought this ornament while living in Minneapolis. Man, that was such an adventure living there! :)



I also, being the Naughty Gussy-girl that I am {or that someone is that lives here}, convinced Zack to purchase this cute, little, Christmas light-adorned tree {see above photo}. Because it's only $2.95. Helloooooo, we need it. Hah :)

On our way home from The General Store we saw a girl ice-skating downtown. It was such a scene from a movie. I swear... Gussy + Zack living scenes straight from a movie.

I believe I'm out now of words.
Yes, I believe this is a first.

tee he he.

PS. Minneapolis is supposed to get 20+ inches of snow soon, and we're supposed to fly out to Michigan soon. Please pray we are able to safely land in Michigan and that we can still spend lots of time with our families, despite the bad weather predicaments.

Many thanks :)
