Busy Saturday!

Ok, so if you checked the blog yesterday, you saw the info on the Old Navy flip flops! ....Well, that's how we spent 1/2 of our day! Old Navy opened at 9:30 this morning & I got there just before 10am. Well, the line was all the way to the back of the store & there were about 5 registers open!!! There were people everywhere - it was crazy!! (Had I been shopping with a certain sister, she would have left when we walked in the store!) :) Anywho..... the kids & I dug in at the tables & searched for the flip flop sizes we needed! Of course, every woman that wears a size 8 was there, so all I could get was 1 pair of black & 1 pair of pink!! (The pickings were slim for the kids too!!) They were on sale for $1, with a limit of 5 pair per person! Well, long story short, we waited in line for almost AN HOUR for these "cheap" flip flops!! (Yes, they are normally 2/$5, but you have to buy 2 - that means you have to spend $5 - this sale saved you $3 on 2 pair!!) :) Shayne was meeting me there after work, so I had him buy some & my mom met us there & she bought some!! (I also got some great deals on shorts & skorts for Madelyn!!) Luckily, I brought my umbrella stroller & some treats, and the kids were great! :) We left with 11 pair of $1-flip flops!!! :) ***Get this: after we left, Gilbert Fire Dept. came to Old Navy, because someone passed out......... probably from standing in the crazy line!!!!! ********

When we were done, Shayne had enough shopping & left! :) The kids & I went to lunch with my mom & then to a few more stores for bridal shower stuff!! :) After that, we headed home & stopped by Circle K.... for Icees of course!! (Since it was about 110 degrees!!) After we got home, we went out back & the kids played in the water while Shayne & I started a garden!!!! :) We're not pro's by any means, so we started small. We planted tomatoes, bell peppers & strawberries. Kinda a wierd combo, but they looked good at the store!! :) Hopefully this one will take off & then we can expand with the seasons!! :) I've always wanted a garden, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that between the heat, the dog & the bugs that the plants survive!!! :)

We still have to finish the pavers around the outside!!



To finish off our day, we had dinner, watched a movie on tv & got the kids ready for bed! Well, Madelyn was brushing her teeth & guess what................ SHE LOST ANOTHER TOOTH!!! Finally, all her loose teeth are out!! Hopefully, she won't be losing any more for quite a while!! :)
