Playing Hooky

Nicole has been wanting to go on a little date and spend some of her saved up Christmas money, well the money that she and her brothers keep stashing away (They have collected and joined together all of their birthday and Christmas money). What does she want to buy? Another Beanie Boo, of course. And a pair of boots she saw at Old Navy the other day.

When I called her orthodontist to make a quick appointment to get a wire fixed, today seemed like the perfect day to play hooky. I checked Nicole out a little after lunch along with Cameron because I couldn't get back in time to pick him up before the appointment. They were both very excited to go. In the car, I overheard this conversation while examining some of the money they brought from their money box.

Nicole: "See Cameron, it says 'In God We Trust' on the money."
Cameron: "That's true. 'Cuz you can always trust Him. He doesn't ever lie."
Nicole: "Ya! Even when He was a baby!"

It made my heart just melt!

We hit the mall, got a smoothie, bought beanie boos (one for each), enjoyed a message at Bed Bath and Beyond, bought boots at Old Navy, went to gymnastics, and VIOLIN with Mary and Noah (Tiff met us at gymnastics with them).

What a date! Loved every second of it!
