Shopping, shopping and more shopping!

I've had several opportunities to do one of my favorite things since I've been here...shopping. Monday, Megan and I had a marathon shopping day-17 hours! She made a run down of our stops on her blog.

Here it goes:
We started off in McKinney thinking we we would just hang out in the McKinney/Allen area...but we ended up leaving Rockwall about 10:30 PM! Here is a rundown of our day...Chick-fil-a for breakfast, Bath and Body Works, Office Depot, Ross, Michael's, Petsmart, Target (to do Megan's baby registry!), Belk, Kirklands, Old Navy, Home Goods/TJ Maxx, Babies R Us (to do Megan's baby registry!), eat at P.F. Chang's for lunch at 4 pm, Lone Star Baby in Dallas (what a fun store!), Mesquite to get Jeff Smith a gift card (they were "sold out" of gift cards....WHAT???), then to the Rockwall Target, Gotta Scrap my favorite scrapbook store, Old Navy, Bath and Body Works, JC Penny, Belk, Chiloso for dinner (SO GOOD!), and finally to Wal-Mart. We still kind of wanted to get to Kohls and to Belk in Greenville, but we were officially WORN OUT!!

The day after Christmas Megan, Momma and I went shopping and I got so many great things for us to do for our advent calendar next year-and at great deals! My friend Jen always does such fun things with her girls. She did a count down to Christmas this year with several things she picked up after Christmas last year so my goal was to shop for our advent calendar next year. I got several cookie kits, a puppet, a letter to Santa kit, and lots of crafts. I'm so excited!

And Friday we are planning to go to Canton! I'm most excited about that! We plan entire trips home around Canton! For all you non East Texas gals it's a giant flea market (I hate calling it that because it's the farthest thing you can imagine from that) that people from all over come to shop. I've known ladies from Arkansas to drive a U-Haul down just to shop. They have everything from furniture to house items and baby boutique things as well as 'garage sale items' (we don't frequent that area). It's an experience you have to see to understand-I love it!

I'm sorting through all of our Christmas pictures feeling a little overwhelmed with all that we've done and what to share. Today is my sister in law Krissy's birthday. Happy Birthday Krissy! Here is a picture from her birthday dinner last night at Edelweiss in Ft Worth. I assure you dinner will get a post of it's own. Until tomorrow...I do have pictures loaded in photobucket I just need to get motivated on posting :) Goodnight!
