Day 333 [Macy's Star]

Part 3 of our Friday festivities.
The final event of the night was the lighting of the Macy's Star.
It was very cool how they did it.  It started with the top of the star being lit first, then it fanned out until the long bottom tail was lit.
At that point the fireworks started to end the show.
We had a perfect position on the street to take in this event.
We were as close at you could get to the Macy's store, right at the baracade, dead center in the street.
It was awesome!  We had great view of the tree and primo view of the star.
Just as the fireworks began, so did the rain.
We were more then happy to head to the car and make our way home for some hot dinner.
The rest of the weekend was enjoyable as well.
Saturday we had dinner at my Mother In Law's house, afterwhich we stopped in for a quick visit with our friends, the Rosemonds.  It was a late night.
Sunday was a bit of a relaxing day.
I started the holiday decorating process, Michel and I went for a run (our first in 9 days, due to the snow and holiday) while Bailey met up with some friends at the mall and took in a movie.
Now my boys are settling into the bed to start their work/school weeks.
Tomorrow I will be getting the decorations on the tree...neither of the boys really has any interest in doing it, so I will crank the Christmas music and spread holiday cheer around my house, while doing laundry and other Monday chores!
