Shopping For Fun

 Beth has been asking me to go shopping lately and we finally found some time to go.

 

I picked her up from bowling and we stopped at Silver Platters. She wanted to get a CD for Chuck for his birthday. She said he only has one CD in his car, the soundtrack to the Broadway play Come From Away. She never saw the play and doesn't really know any of the songs. So she bought him The Greatest Showman. It's one of her favorites! 

 

 We left there and met Diana and Adelaide for lunch at Red Robin. Another of Beth's favorites.

 

 

 

 Then it was off to Target. Beth bought some overalls there not too long ago and both of those metal clips that attach the straps have broken. She loves those overalls so she tried on some new ones but they just didn't fit well. The top was too big; the pants were long...

 

"I dunno" (with a drop at the end) is Beth speech for "Nope." 

Beth are you having the soup? "I dunno." 

Did you want to come with us? "I dunno."

After I took this picture she turned around and said, "I dunno."

 

We're going to look for some on-line.

 

 

When we left Target Diana and Adelaide headed home and Beth and I went to Staples. She was after markers and gel pens. Two things she didn't find at Target.

 

She headed straight for the back of the store. Knew exactly what she wanted and where they were!

 

 I cut her toenails this week and I noticed she needs new shoes. So, we'll be shoe shopping next!

Busted!

Beth and I did a little shopping the other day. She was so excited about all the back-to-school stuff and wanted to go buy some things.

This was the same day we bought her kitchen cabinets. After we had taken them downstairs and set everything up, I was exhausted and ready to just crash for a while. But she was insistent about getting her school supplies.

So we headed to Fred Meyer since they have just about everything and as we're walking to the back-to-school section I asked her what she wanted to buy. "Jus' my markers." Seriously? You don't want a backpack and pens and... "No." We find the aisle with the markers and of course they don't have the colors she likes. She's found some markers that are a different shade from the regulars. Instead if red, blue, green, they are maroon, teal and forest. But many stores don't carry them.

We walked around for a while and she found this bathrobe. She's always liked Spongebob! And it was SO soft! But she decided not to buy it because she already has a purple robe at home.

After buying some groceries we stopped by Bartell's so she could get her markers but I told her I'd wait in the car. She sure loves that store!

You can tell by the look on her face that she caught me taking her picture! That's usually when I hear, "Mothera!"
