Super Saturday!

Saturday with Minnie started out at NorthPark Mall!!!  Mommy had a few stores to visit (really quickly!) before we hit up the Lego Store!  Lincoln had a plan of which Lego sets he wanted to purchase.  He had $21.00 to buy a Ninja Turtle set, and he was sure that Minnie would buy him the $40.00 Lego Movie Trash Compactor.  They didn't have the Ninja Turtle set, but he found a cool Batman one to suffice, and Minnie came through with the big one.  Beau picked out a little train (for Mommy to put together) that he would drive around on some made-up tracks.  Mission accomplished and a happy group!

We made a little stop at Gap, and backpacks were on sale.  Since it's almost time for Lincoln to start Kindergarten (!!!!!!!!), he needed a big boy upgrade.  He picked a navy and white striped one with a matching insulated lunch bag.  Beau convinced me that he needed a new backpack too, and it wasn't a hard sale.  We might need to get these super fun new backpacks monogrammed to make them extra cute! 

The boys stopped to check out the ducks.  That's their favorite part of visiting NorthPark! Holding hands made it so much sweeter!

A family of turtles were swimming on the other side, and they all posed with Minnie . . . all but the turtles!  They swam away! 

We had lunch at Chick-fil-A and used our cookie credit cards (Thanks, Samantha!) to get an iced cookie and Icee for the ride home.  It was the quietest moments of the day with them slurping on their drinks and licking icing off the cookies!  Lincoln said, "You should have given us these when we got here, and we would have been quiet the whole time!"  So true, little guy!  After some major Lego time at home and a little rest, we headed out to Lincoln's soccer game.  It was fun, and he played hard!  The boys on his team are all super nice and great players.  We are still undefeated . . . go Tornadoes!

So much fun on this Saturday!  Daddy approved of our big boy backpack and maybe even the monogram!  Daddy also would have liked us to bring him a peanut butter chocolate chip cookie from the Mrs. Fields store . . . sorry Daddy . . . maybe we'll remember next time . . . or just come with us next time!!!  So much on the agenda for Sunday, and we need some rest.  Lincoln is being torn away from the Legos to go to bed at 11:00, but he's planning to stay up to make a banner for Minnie to take home.  Such a sweetie!
