Each year we try to get down to the Plaza to see the lights and enjoy dinner at The Cheesecake Factory. We didn't make it down last year, so I made sure we would not miss it this year. This past weekend was gorgeous, so we headed down to the Plaza Saturday night.
It was packed! But, it was so beautiful outside that it didn't really matter.
We arrived at The Cheesecake Factory at 4:30 and have over an hour wait. We did some quick shopping on the plaza before returning back and waiting patiently for our buzzer to go off!
We waited, and waited, and waited....
As always, Addison photo bombed our picture. She is sneaky like that!
Finally we were seated and chowed down on the bread basket brought to us.
We had seats upstairs, which was a lot of fun. We had a great view of the plaza through a window close by.
We ordered chocolate chip cookie dough cheesecake this time. It was delicious. Every piece of cheesecake from The Cheesecake Factory is delicious.
We walked around a little more after dinner and did some more window shopping. After the Plaza, we drove through the Crown Center area. There is a huge Christmas tree next to the ice skating rink and so many Christmas lights. It really was beautiful. It was a great family Christmas night!
