Miss Katie's Birthday... AKA... a trip to the mall!

Going to the mall just isn't what it used to be.

Before kids, I mean!
For one thing, my friends and I take up a TON more room!

We end up spending the whole time looking at exciting things like horse heads on sticks.

Taking your friend out for a birthday lunch = food court
(You can tell Kelsey's smiling, even with her mouth full of food.
I guess that's why they call it a "Happy Meal!")
Instead of loading yourself down with shopping bags, you end up
filling your "cart" with stray kids and lots of snacks!And when you turn around, you remember you forgot about the quiet one! Ha ha!
But what precious bundles I came home with today!

Yes, not quite the same as before ... but oh so sweet now!
