*Your shopping companions are happy
*You actually have some $$ to spend
*You can find what you want
*You can find what you like
*You and your companions can agree on what to buy
Well, MY opinion anyway...
Maybe there's more sometimes, but today everyone of these qualifications were actually met, and believe me, that is a rare occasion here. Actually the truth is, we do very little shopping. It almost never happens "just for fun", and although we had some necessary shopping to do today, it was combined with some "just for fun".
Of course there had to be a little pout somewhere in there... littlest missy really thought that the shopping trip was all for her benefit. She needs new shoes. We looked for some, but didn't end up finding any, so although she did get a couple new items of clothing, in her opinion, the day really wasn't a success without the shoes!
Mom came over this morning when we were getting ready to go, so we invited her to go along.
She was a pretty good sport...I have to admit, the dynamics's of 4 girls and one boy for shopping companions & having to wait for your lunch while the two teen's tried on & looked at "just one more thing" is a little trying. (no problem putting up with me...I'm easy...! LOL)
Lunch at Perkins, Ice cream cones before heading out of town to go home, and as soon as we got home we loaded up the guys who came home earlier & went to some friends for supper & a fun evening with other friends. Thanks Jim & Shelley, and HAPPY Anniversary Duane & Gina!! Fun to be with you tonight!
When we got home the kids got to finally unload their stash & oggle over everything.
I did a little shopping for me...2 new T shirts, 2 shirts & pants for Leon, a baby gift, a birthday gift (she doesn't read my blog anyway!) a new cookbook (that I DIDN'T need!) and some really fun cute beads to make a belt out of! TOTALLY unnecessary.
The end to another perfect but really not ordinary day!
I sure hope "the boy" got some new things too, looks like a lot of girl stuff!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun day! Fun to stop by--and I didn't even have to shop! Happy Mother's Day!
ReplyDeleteWe actually didn't find one item of clothing in GI for Morgen. He did get something else he's been wanting tho!
ReplyDeleteHe WAS NOT interested in having his pictures taken with the girly stuff either!!
Looks like you had quite the fun time and to get grandma to come along with that all. Lynisha, the kids, and I had a fun shopping trip to WY the other day. NO pictures though. I've got to get myself a camera.
