Today, Kristen, the girls, and I took Heidi out on a Surprise Outing for her birthday, which is Friday. First, we stopped at Payless to get Emma some ballet slippers, since today was also her first dance lesson. Needless to say, I found some shoes too (two pairs for $10!!! AND they're cute! And, Heidi and Kristen, the CHOCOLATE came out of the one pair, so there!) Next, we took our starving selves and grumpy Olivia to the Cheesecake Factory up at Crocker Park. Yum. And yum. And YUM! And then, as the grande finale, we went to Trader Joe's and wandered every aisle at least twice, and I managed to spend yet MORE money. It was a very good day.
And we can't forget photos of the wittle ballawina:

I spy 2% Fage yogurt in your cart. Love that stuff! It’s on my grocery list for tomorrow. Sounds like a really fun day. Now I’m wishing I had a Trader Joe’s nearby.
Happy Birthday Heidi! Sounds like you all had great fun on your outing.
Chocolate covered shoes- how innovative- how economical in today’s market- how fun! Only you could find such a bargain! ‘m glad they are now chocolate-free because they really are cute! Thanks for a great day!
AAAAAAWWWWWWW. What a wonderful day! I’m glad you were able to dechocolate the shoes. Happy Birthday Heidi!
