We Have Decided on a New Tradition.
Growing Up,
We Each Recall that Back to School Shopping was
Something Special & Exciting.
Because We Have Year Round School,
and Our Summer Break is 3 WEEKS,
I Usually Squeeze it in at Random Times During the Break-
Nothing Spectacular to Write Home 'Bout.
But this Year,
We Decided on a Change.
We Got a Hotel,
4 Miles from Home
[We Could See our Neighborhood Out the Window!]
and Close to Shopping.
The First Evening We Spent
Getting New Back Packs & Threads.
Then We Enjoyed Dinner
Outside on a Patio at a Close-by Grill,
Enjoying the Live Band,
and Cool Summer Evening.
Back at the Hotel,
We Went Swimming,
and Stayed Up Late Watching a Movie.
The Next Morning,
We Had More Swimming,
For MORE Shopping,
{New Shoes and Fun in the Dressing Room!}
We Hit Up the New Cars 2 Movie,
and More Dinner,
Before Heading for Home.
It was Fun to Give the Boys
such a
School Shopping Treat!
We Loved it!

What a great idea! I love that you stayed in a hotel so close to home--awesome.

Fun fun! I'm so jealous of your kids. I wanna be your kid too
Way to go! School shopping is fun, but you have raised it to a new all time high!
