Saturday Shopping Spree and a Fish Tale

We split into two groups and headed off for major shopping sprees.  I had the easy end of the deal and took Benjamin and Emma Back-to-School shopping.  Both of them needed new shoes and Benjamin needed school supplies.  We headed to Target to get what was needed, then to Payless for Benjamin's shoes where he got shoes that tie, and finally finished our adventure at Wendy's where we even got Frostys to celebrate.  Here are the pictures of spoils.






Then Stephen headed to Winco to restock our pantry and long term food storage.  I usually do this about once every six months but it had been over a year. Supplies were really low.  These two had the hard job as Stephen filled an entire cart, checked out, loaded the car and then repeat the entire process again!  That is right two entire cart load of pantry staples and canned food.  There were some casualities in that Jacob dropped a bottle steak sauce on the floor and all over Stephen's shoe and also the entire dozen eggs in the parking lot as Stephen was loading the car.  It was a super shopping spree to say the least, and I don't know if it will ever be repeated with Jacob in tow again!




In the late afternoon Stephen heard from some friends that the local sports wholesale store had a fishing ponds.  He had Benjamin headed over to catch a fish while the little kiddos napped.  Benjamin has been asking us for months for a fishing pole and to go fishing so this was just a perfect experience.  Only it hasn't been so perfect for us because now he just keeps asking for a pole and when he can go again!
