It's still Christmas in St Paul!!!!!

We arrived in Minneapolis Wednesday evening, picked up Halley and headed back to the St Paul Hotel to celebrate some of the holiday with Halley.  We had tickets for the musical 'Elf' the next day and it sounded like fun to stay somewhere new... plus the theater was less than a block away.
Woke up and had Halley's presents all wrapped and ready for her.  We ordered a special treat: room service!  While waiting for it to arrive, Halley had fun opening her treasures!  Just about the time she was done, breakfast came!


Walked over to the theater... had great seats!  The show, it was so good and the actor playing Buddy... well, he had a set of lungs and set of legs that could sing and dance... full of energy... like the best on Broadway.  The story-line was cute... different than the movie... but along the same lines of the movie.  Fun, Fun, Fun!!!!! The best part, though, is when the show was over... we walked outside.... and.... it was snowing!!!! We walked around... checked out the ice skating rink (no, we didn't ice skate... just checked it out)... took pics,,, and then headed back in for a while.  Went back out for dinner, and the lights in the park were even more gorgeous!  I sure wish we had weather like this in our little burg...  

After the show, we  were greeted with snow!  We meandered through Rice Park as we headed back to the hotel... very, very serene and, yes, very, very cold... 
 
 
 
 

Evening, even prettier... should've uploaded a clearer pic, but you get the idea!
