Today was an important holiday tradition -- perhaps even the most important one, in my world. Today was holiday shopping with my Dad. We started doing this when I was six or seven; just the two of us, shopping for presents for our loved ones.

We had a fun time toodling around a few stores (and I made some serious scores at the Goodwill we went to. Yes, I will take that pink quartz, freshwater pearl, and sterling silver necklace, thankyouverymuch, I have a giant moonstone pendant that needed a home), and then went and had Chinese food.

You guys, Dad looks so happy. And relaxed.

(Backstory: Dad recently moved in with his ladylove, and also retired from the Retail Hell job.)

Happy! Relaxed! Not looking exhausted! Seriously, I told him that his retiring from Fred Meyer was the best birthday present he could have given me, and this totally proves it.
