Today was an amazing day.
It started with Me, Michelle, Michelle's sister Yvonne, daughter Lindsey Marie and seven granddaughters. Our first stop was a tailgate picnic in the Denny Street parking structure across from McCaw Hall. Grandma Michelle made a pretty fancy spread for a parking garage picnic.
Next was the afternoon performance of the Nutcracker, which was actually quite awesome. After the Nutcracker was a trip to Starbucks for hot chocolate and then on to ice skating at the Seattle Center. I haven't ice skated in years and I'm going to pay for it tomorrow, but totally worth it. After ice skating was dinner at the Old Spaghetti Factory; not exactly fine dining, but perfect for seven hungry little girls.
Today was an amazing day. The hope of days like today are what prompted me to have weight loss surgery. Without surgery there would have been no ice skating; at least not for me. To be in the middle of the activity, instead of watching from the outside, is amazing. This is what I've been looking for; working towards; dreaming of for a very long time.
Today was an amazing day.
