Shopping
I went shopping yesterday with Chris's cousin Lynn. We went to North GA. Had a great time! The weather was wonderful. I wore my Sarah! (McCain/Palin) sweatshirt, and was stopped 6 times with compliments on my shirt.
I ended up spending the most in Harry & David - got some delicious goodies. Found some Grey Flannel for Chris. Got some soup bowls, a shirt and some cookie cutters. We ate supper at Pappa Deaux - great food. Love the crawfish.
I really enjoyed spending the time with Lynn - that was the best part of all.
On the way to pick Lynn up, I stopped to get gas, filled up at $2.62, stopped at the same gas station on the way back home to top off, it was now $2.53 a gallon. It cost $23.95 to top off.

$2.65
Gas is $2.65 where my parents live. 30 minutes away where I live, it is $2.96 - it is coming down.
Ty and PT
Ty has to start PT for his soccer injury. He is still on crutches, is out for the rest of the season - but he is improving.
AHA Heart Walk
Meet Bella. She is Kellie's dog. Kellie is the AHA director and coordinator of the Heartwalk.
Just a few of the tents at the Heart Walk.
The gifts I received for being one of the top 3 individual fund raisers. I raised $1330. My team's total was $1630. (lots of goodies inside)
Last I checked, the total was up around $96K. The goal is $135K, there's still time to reach the goal even though the "walk" has already taken place.
Kellie did a wonderful job! I think this was the best Heart Walk yet. This is my 4th Heart Walk.
American Girl Boutique & Bistro
October 12th - It's that time of year again - getting close to Christmas and BB decided we would make an earlier trip to The American Girl Boutique and Bistro this year in hopes of avoiding the disappointment of some little girls when the dolls or clothes they were seeking were sold out like last year. Also, we hoped the store wouldn't be as busy at it was last year when we went closer to Christmas. Well, the shelves were full, and the chosen dolls and outfits were available.
The store was busy - but not nearly as busy as it was last year in December.
FYI - you have to make RESERVATIONS at the bistro! Can you imagine?!?! They serve icecream and snacks, and they require reservations! And of course, when we attempted to make reservations, we were turned away with the "We're not taking any further reservations today." Come on! We drove 2 1/2 hours to get here, and last year the bistro was closed, so the girls were promised that if it was open, they could eat in the bistro. Oh well, country come to town... next year might be the charm.
Both girls chose "Felicity" (photo below). KB was bound, bent and determined she was going to have the exact doll and clothes that AG chose. BB got Felicity's pal Elizabeth for her house so there would always be a doll to play with.
