Recently the little ones' love gathering coins (earning them, begging, finding, and stealing :) them). When they gather what they think is enough they put them into one of their wallets or pouches and inform me of what they plan to buy. It depends on their mood, but on any given day they might expect their hand full of coins to buy them a pool, piece of candy, action figure...really whatever they want. It breaks my heart when I have to tell them that 2 cents just can't buy a Build-a-Bear!
However, on Saturday I decided to pitch in and help them buy prizes with their coins.
Emmy bought this High school Musical makeup mirror that really lights up....she was sooo excited to hand the cashier her coins!
Ella bought some flip flops with a sparkly jewel on them. She says their her dancing shoes, and her daddy is going to take her dancing! : )
Carson chose a Buzz Lightyear washcloth that expands when you put it into water...thankfully that was a very cheap choice. In this picture he had it packed away, ready to take to Corbin's. I think that was the best prize of all for Carson! He loved spending the night with his buddy!*Later on that day Cade and I got to have a night out together. I didn't get any pictures : (, but we shopped at Stonebriar Mall, and Cade chose an LSU shirt for his prize. We then had dessert at The Cheesecake Factory (early b-day treat for me). Saturday evening we watched Colt's play, and ate at Angelina's with Brenda and Colt.*
