Tomorrow is my last day of work! Yay! Then I can go home on Saturday and relax. I have so much cleaning up to do before I leave! I watched last night's episode of Modern Family, and I really enjoyed this quote that the character Phil said, "That's the funny thing about marriage; you fall in love with this extraordinary person, and over time they begin to seem ordinary". In some ways that does seem true. Sometimes you spend so much time with one person that you start to forget what they are capable of, or other aspects of them until they do something that takes you back and then you remember again.
As I was leaving the library today to meet my friends, my friend popped out of the elevator as I was about to get in! I had seen her earlier but when she left she said she wasn't going to come back, so it was good to see her again. Anyway, as she was getting out she was speaking with the library custodian and the lady seemed really nice. I had never really talked to a custodian before other than saying thank you, or just nodding hello. So as we rode the elevator, we got to chat and it was really nice. She seemed really cool and as she got out on a floor earlier than mine, she told me to have a good week and was about to walk off, when she spun around, pointed a finger at me, and said, "Oh, and merry Christmas!" I guess you had to have been there to really know what I'm talking about (it was a lot cooler than it sounds). But just her vibe was so animated and so much like something you'd see on TV. =)
This is a cute video and song!
Then I met up with my friends and I finally got to go see the lights at the park! It was pretty cool! Although I had imagined 3D decorations and lights, they still had some pretty cool stuff. There were lights that moved using a hydraulics system, lights that flashed on and off such that it would create an animation, some houses that had moving puppet things... and then lots of creative 2D figures. It's probably better to just see them for yourself than to try and imagine what I'm struggling to describe.
They even hung this in way up there! It's a hot air balloon.. sorry it's upside down.. I will fix this when I have better internet.
Also a two part series, we followed the North star and found Jesus!
Two part series of a dinosaur eating a palm tree, oh how Christmassy.

Yay! I was so excited to see this! I didn't really know exactly where in the park it was, so I was just banking on the fact that I'd be able to see lights from somewhere and then follow my way there. But it turns out my friends and I went straight to the entrance without even planing to!
This is what I meant when I said there were puppets inside. They look kind of creepily ugly, but it's still cool that they made this.
It says, "Santa's Hotline". You could go inside and sit, not that it provided any shelter (it was just a frame).
Two part series, it would flash the top photo and then the bottom one.
Batman!?
Spongebob and Patrick =)
Penguins. This is really what Canada looks like everywhere.
Winnie the Pooh!
This is a two part series only because I couldn't tel which side was the front. There was no special animation or anything... Just someone who has trouble seeing, I guess.
This was a cute fireplace scene.
And finally, Noah's ark!
Yay! There were tons more, but I didn't want to post all 70 photos!! I'm glad I got to go even though I had expected something quite different. It was still really cool to look at and fun to go there with my friends!
Read on for today's Proverbs 27
Verse 1, "Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring forth."
Verse 6, "Wounds from a friend can be trusted, but an enemy multiplies kisses."
Verse 17, "As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another."
Verse 20, "Death and Destruction are never satisfied, and neither are the eyes of man."
