Dallas Shopping Weekend

Oh My Goodness! We had such a fabulous time in Dallas shopping with Granny on Friday and Saturday!

Chatty visited the American Girl doll store. She was thrilled to see the different dolls, their clothes and accessories, and the excitement of all the little girls carrying their own dolls and looking for more! The store was extremely crowded Friday morning... we found out there was going to be a 6 year old birthday party/luncheon upstairs!

Chatty stayed in the car while Granny & Momma shopped at Joann's. They had their Simplicity patterns on sale (5 for $5) ... and this is what we got: 3551, 3520, 4654, 4364, and 5284 will be shared with the grandson's - it's a backpack! (You can see them at: http://simplicity.com/). Each pattern has unique qualities, but since they are all from Simplicity, pieces and parts can be easily interchanged to create even more new looks!

On Saturday, Chatty stayed home. Granny & Momma went to a quaint shop in Duncanville, Pursley's, that offers all sorts of trim and ribbons and fabrics. We bought SEVERAL pieces of fabric and bunches of trim! This is in addition to the trim purchased the day before at Joann's! And, all the cutie trims Auntie Linda found and mailed to Granny & Papo's !!! The package arrived just in time to bring home!

Then, before dashing out the door to head back to the ranch, I checked a couple of boxes of Granny's fabric stash. I found a couple of pieces that will be perfect for Valentine's Day and St. Patrick's Day! And, this was after (the night before) cleaning out three of Granny's sewing cabinet drawers full of trim!

We had a great time in Dallas... visiting and shopping... but we are so glad to be home!
