Yeah for shopping!

For those that know me well, you know I am not the world's best shopper. Meaning, it's not something I love to do. I enjoy it occastionally, especially when we have tax return money to spend. So all that to say, Saturday we spent the entire day shopping. We had a few things on our list that were needs (C's new socks) and a few wants (me a new Easter outfit). I also wanted to find the kiddies Easter outfits, but that didn't happen. I'm still looking. We came home with other stuff too, but got a lot of good deals.

Here is a list of what I can remember that we bought: K a new dress; C jeans, socks, cleats for baseball, 4 long sleeved T's; Daddy 2 new dress shirts, jeans, pants, socks, new Crocs (I think he's a little addicted), racketball glasses; Me a whole new outfit! skirt, 2 piece top, shoes ($70 shoes for $7), Bath and Body. We had a lot of bags when we got home! Poor K girl only got one thing, which is really unusual. Usually, she has the most stuff (girls are so much fun to buy for). I think all in all, we all made out really good. We also went out to eat and got the car washed. You'll have to wait til my Easter post to see my outfit. One hint: it's hot pink!

*Now I hope I can find Easter stuff for the kiddies. I also would like to get Daddy a new suit. Since he lost all his weight, his old one doesn't fit*

Christmas shopping

Let me start out by saying--I hate crowds. Maybe I'm getting old? But there is one time a year that I like to go out in the midst of the crowds. And that is to Christmas shop. On Saturday, we went to a mall on the northside of Indy and did some Christmas shopping. We left around 9:30 and didn't get home until after 6. It was a long day, but we got a lot done. We only have a few more things to get and we all will be done with all of our shopping. Thank goodness! Now that I've had my one day of crowds, I'm done. Besides my feet were hurting by the end of the day. We did go out to eat at a favorite restaurant -- Carrabba's--since there isn't one close to us. K didn't get her nap and she was grumpy by early evening. Now she is all messed up as to her "nap" time. When she went to bed last night, she thought it was just her nap and wondered why it was dark. Today when she went for her nap, she wanted to brush her teeth and get her jammies on. And she keeps talking about a "nap." She is such a person of routine. Now I have only a few days to finish up, since we are having our family Christmas this Saturday. No pressure!
