Tuesday

This is the yucky side of having apricots...

picking up all the yucky, rotten apricots as well as dealing with the squirrels that make a huge mess getting to the seed inside the pit of the apricots. This is today's project... so we can have a campout in the backyard later in the week.

Yesterday though we did the last of our "back to school shopping". The kiddos both needed new shoes... Walker is big into name brand shoes this year... wanting Sketchers... actually the light up/annoying ones but $55 for a 2nd grader's pair of shoes was so not happening.  So we compromised... Sketchers Gripperz (his other fav)..they don't light up but are ultra cool in their ruggedness... still $45 bucks!

While I was busy with Walker trying on shoes sizes Ainsley did her own shopping. She went past the pink girlie shoes and right to these...(not sure why these look so big in the picture??) She was beyond excited to get the approval to buy them!

I love how she's coming into her own self with her own style choices. We got a pair of ballet flats to wear with her school clothes choice of wanting to wear just skirts this year.

Only 9 days and counting until school starts!
