Cross Dress For Less.

Berkeley and I love Ross Dress for Less, especially Berkeley. In fact, he went to Ross two times yesterday. Once on his own and once with me. Even though he loves it, he still insists on calling it Cross Dress For Less. It is kind of funny. Anyway, last night while at Ross (or Cross) we had a great time together. We shopped around for ourselves and checked out some baby stuff. That was fun because it was the first time the idea of having a baby has felt real and exciting. Berkeley used to be obsessed with the character "Strawberry Shortcake" when he was little. He thought she smelled good and was hot or something. Anyway, we saw a Strawberry Shortcake baby outfit last night and Berkeley wanted to buy it so bad because "what are the chances first of all, of coming across a Strawberry Shortcake outfit? And in Ross for so cheap?" We did not buy it because we don't even know what we are having and then we realized that the outfit was 4T. We obviously haven't learned how small an infant is yet or how to read the sizes on baby clothes. Oh well. Then, we got to the section in Ross where they have all the weird vases and animal statues. Berkeley decided to put two animal statues (an elephant and a duck) in a dirty position. I was laughing so hard and it was too funny for me to fix, so we left it there on the shelf just like that. We continued on our adventure by looking at pictures, pillows, rugs, laundry baskets, etc. It was weird, but it was like we needed eveerything. We left Ross with a kitchen rug, a tie, and a beer boot for our neighbor who doesn't drink beer but is always drinking water out of a mason jar and is a huge sports fan. It was such a fun low-key night. I recommend going on your next date to Cross Dress For Less.

I like that store too! they do have the best inexpensive baby clothes there. I wait until we go to utah and stock up on baby clothes. AND... I bought a strawberry shortcake outfit for Olivia. it has a green cordiroy(sp) jacket and jean pants. I can't wait for Olivia to fit into it.

Oh my gosh--Natalie Lucy totally has a strawberry short cake outfit TOO!!!! Is is purple, you know my favorite color that I dress lucy in too. But anyways annie Christy and I worked at Ross (or cross) way back when and we were on the markdown crew so each week we were assigned a section like home decor or womens and we would have to scan everything in that section and if they were on clearence then move them to the clearence section. Let me tell you not only was that the more borring job I EVER had but we saw some crazy crap in the store.

das boot is awesome!!! thanks again, we're trying to figure out something equally as cool to get you guys, but I don't think anything can really compare to "das boot". Grant starts laughing every time he takes a drink and the bubbles come out of the toe.
