Back To School Shopping
for the first time...
for the last time in elementary school....
I had really wanted to take them individually and give him personal attention and make it a big deal since it was his first school supply list. And, of course, Gracie gets me making a fuss over her list every year, because she is the only one who has one.
It worked out today though. I did his list first and we found everything on it, as Gracie attempted to be as silent as a statue. He got more and more excited with every thing he got to toss in the shopping cart. And, there was plenty to toss in that cart I tell you.
Then, it was Gracie's turn. She was bummed with the lack of items she could really personalize for herself, but she seemed pleased with the choices she made when all was said and done. Both kids are now stocked and ready to go. Thankfully though they will sit a while on the floor of the playroom until we have to take them in for Meet The Teacher night/Cardinal Camp August 28th.

Fun shopping times! I'm sure they will BOTH do great and school and have lots of friends. Your children are so well-mannered and just soooo sweet!!! Teachers will LOVE them!!!!!
