"i might not need to do this today...it is going to rain."

we went to gainesville today. this is how the trip went: target, lowes, chic-fil-a, payless shoe source, shoe carnival, mall, thrift store.

only $1 from target. awesome. 

payless: 1 pair of sandals & 1 pair of boots.

 thrift store: dress for e, 3 shirts for c, 1 top for me.

sound like a normal trip to g'ville? ha! well i thought it might be too until we got to the mall. no worries, nothing horrible happened. no one busted in as a robber and took  my money but.......

emily decided she would do this.

she is so happy, now that all the tears are gone. there are no pictures of the actual deed. she literally asked me if she could get her ears pierced, as we entered the mall. and she was a total trooper! she did decide once seated, marked, and  the gun loaded, "i might not need to do this today...it is going to rain." but after a lollipop, a cookie brib, and a black teddy bear to hold, she is now the proud owner of [2] 14k white gold ball earrings.

by the way, a very cute boy tagged along. he was very good. and he didn't cry once.
