Our last work day before vacation! We were invited by my in-laws & grandma to go to Charlotte/Concord for the weekend. Cool thing is that our hotel room is covered & we don’t even have to drive our own car- K is driving us in Grandma’s. :cheery:

One of the reasons we agreed to go is to purchase new clothes for Noah & Ella. They grow so fast that they are in desperate need of new wardrobe additions. The mall we are staying close to has The Children’s Place Outlet Store, so I am betting I’ll be spending a few hours in there, *lol* . They also have a Gymboree Outlet, Polo Ralph Lauren Factory Store, & a Banana Republic Factory Store. I imagine I’ll be hitting those up as well
I do miss one thing about living in big cities, all the stores! I’m a big internet shopper now, but I admit there are definitely times I miss hanging out at a big mall shopping with a few girlfriends! This weekend should make up for some of the shopping I’ve missed over the last five years

The house is “fairly” clean. I’m trying to get everything done & clean before we leave. There’s nothing poopier than coming home after a five hour drive with small children to a messy house, I imagine. I don’t have much else to do, so it should be pretty feasible.
