SHOPPING DAYS

Yesterday mama and Mimi went shopping for school clothes at Supermall. We spent a total of
$300.00. $150.00 for mama and $150.00 for Mimi. Papa nearly had a heart attack when I told him how much we spent. But then I reminded him about the shoes he bought at the Nordstrom yearly sale and that the stores we went shopping at were outlet stores so we did not pay full price for anything. Then he was able to calm down.

We came home with a load of clothing from The Children's Place. In all she has a total of 31 mix and match outfits for this school season. Unlike California where one could wear summer clothing practically year round, here the weather is getting quite cool which is unusual for August. Mimi is now set for the fall and winter season

The neighbors say that last winter they had a good snowfall, so I guess we will have to wait and see about this winter. Mimi can hardly wait to put on her snow clothes. She just loves the snow. This winter she will be going to ski school and possibly with her new friend Blake.

Today, we will meet with papa after work and go shopping again. This time it is for a new washer. The one we have now is ready for the great laundromat in the sky. Dottie

DAY AT THE LAKE

Yesterday and today Mimi and mama went with their new neighbor friend Blake and his mom Keri and little sister Bailey exploring Lake Meridian and Lake Wilderness. Both places are very nice and kid friendly. We all liked Lake Wilderness the best because it is the closest(5 minutes from home) and a bigger park. The kids are able to go swimming in the lake where it is roped off. Of course mama forgot to bring the digital camera so therefore there are NO PICTURES!!! What a bummer!!! However she did manage to take pictures with the disposable camera. Yesterday and today, the weather has been gorgeous. It is great swimming weather. Tomorrow is supposed to rain off and on. So therefore it will be grocery shopping day.
