Shrek the Halls

Today, I went down to the National Harbor with Robyn, Jules, and Patrick (Jules's fiance).  Robyn wanted to get some Christmas shopping done, so I walked around with her.  Then we met up with Jules and Patrick at a sports bar so they could watch some of the football games going on.  And around 4 PM, we went to see Shrek the Halls.  The event organizers had popped a huge tent where there were ice sculptures of the Shrek characters and lots of lights.  The ventue was set at 12 degrees or something like that, so I'm glad they gave us parkas to keep us warm.  Midway through the exhibit they had ice slides, so of course, we all had to take a turn going down them.  Wheee!
