Kate tried on 50 garments. Mary Frances tried on 6. Molly eagerly kept bringing Kate clothes to try on, while Christina and I sat and evaluated. We all had a great day. For their Christmas gift, Ken and I gave Kate and Mary Frances a shopping expedition. Last year we did the same thing and it was a big hit. We also learned that the Thursday after Christmas is a wonderful day to shop because everyplace was having sales. Of course, this year we went shopping the Thursday after Christmas and yes, we did very well with the prices.
Last year Molly stayed with Linda but this year Linda is still recovering from a cold so Molly came with us. She turned out to be a big help. But before we left home, I told Molly that she could select one object to buy as she already had received her Christmas gift. But she was much more interested in selecting clothes for Kate than in choosing for herself. In fact, after we visited three stores and the girls were finished their shopping, Molly still had not selected anything to take home. But she decided she wanted a fleece and fuzzy jacket just like the one Kate bought and was wearing. So back we went and finally bought a garment for Molly. I was so cheap I reminded the clerk that their policy was that if you bought a second of the same garment, the next one was 40% less than the sales price. And she did.
When all the clothes were put in the car, we went for lunch, a new restaurant called 356. Delicious. Kate returned home with 8 garments and Mary Frances 6. The next activity was to be a fashion show. Great fun shopping with your grandchildren. And they loved it too.
