Tonight My beloved and Joe were blessed with the opportunity to attend a Red Hawks baseball game in OKC with our dear friends the Elliott's. That left me time with the little girls while Josh stayed home with Grandma.
The girls and I headed to Tecumseh for a stop at the library. We love books so much! We were only there 10 minutes, but managed to fill our bag with at least 12 books. Miss K is working on the step one - beginning to read on her own. I always have a wish list going and the other girls choose whatever looks good. We also got two books on tape that help the drive time go much faster!
Next, we met Grandma T in Shawnee for a quick errand. Lastly a stop at the bank finished my errands. Now it was time to officially start our 'Girls Night Out'.
We headed to the mall, going to Claire's to buy new necklaces. They were so excited that they could hardly choose the one they wanted! Miss A choose a pretty pink headband with a big bow, Miss K got a necklace with a black cat/heart charms, and Miss M went for the pink butterfly necklace and ring. We choose some purple toenail polish (I won't paint fingernails very often!) and a new hairbrush. They couldn't wait to get their new pretties on.
As we left the mall, we spotted a carnival in the parking lot. The girls don't remember ever going to one, so mommy splurged and bought them each 1 ride at $3 a piece. Miss K and Miss M chose the fun house, while Miss A went on the kiddy boats. We also discussed that they didn't remember EVER eating Cotton Candy, so of course we came home with a bag. When the carnival fun was over, we headed to Walmart for shirts for Josh and hot pink flip flops for Miss A at Old Navy. With the shopping done, we were off to dinner.
The girls were very blessed to get to chose a happy meal from McDonalds. Not our usual choice so they were again excited. I think Miss K's words were "This is the best day ever!"
After we got home we took some time to paint our toenails, eat the cotton candy, and read a book together. I pray the little girls will remember that their momma took the time to invest in their lives, having fun with them, and treating them special. Each one is such a blessing to me!!
