Hell has almost frozen over…

Sam and I went to the mall this afternoon. As we passed a few stores, Sam would always point out something in the display… look at the new shoes at Tradehome, smell the pretty flowers at Bath & Body Works, look at the pretty lady at Victoria’s Secret (ok… that was me, but you get the idea).  We then passed a Hallmark store and he said, ‘Look Daddy, it’s Mickey Mouse.’  I turned to expect to see some Disney/Pixar display for Wall-E, their new movie for the summer.

Nope. What do I see but a poster announcement for Christmas ornaments to be released on Jul 12. I know the economy has been hurting stores this year, but to even intimate Christmas 2008 in June is a little much. I guess that means we should start thinking about Sam’s 10th birthday, Evan’s first day of kindergarten and my 20th high school reunion. Uhhh… scratch the last one, that’s actually next summer.
