LONG Day

Wow, today was a very LONG day.
First, we left at 8:40ish to get to Goodwill for the bimonthly 50% off Saturday. I found a green skirt that reminded me kinda of the 60s, and some purple pants. I'm pretty excited about the purple pants, I've been wanting some colored pants for a little while now. I just have to take them in a bit, because the flare is pretty gigantic. Ok, not really THAT big, but bigger than I want. I'll post pictures when I get them all fixed up. Probably.
Then, Bentley and I ran over to Superstition Mall, because we both needed Easter dresses She found one at DownEast Basics, and I looked at basically every store (some more than once) and found nothing. Nada. I guess that's what happens when you go dress shopping the day before Easter. Ok, there were a few I liked, but it was lacking like a foot of fabric to my knee, a back, sleeves... etc etc. But, what else do ya expect? We stayed there for a little bit, then decided to just leave.
We then had the Reed Family Reuinion, which was pretty sweet! It was a BBQ, with a popcorn and cotton candy machine, which was fun. The kids were entertained with bounce houses and an Easter egg hunt. While I sat there trying not to fall asleep (we had already been out for a while, and stayed up late the night before watching PrisonBreak..FINALLY). Anyways, after the egg hunt, I enjoyed myself trying to talk the kiddos into giving me some candy. Thank goodness Tommy doesn't like chocolate! ;) ha jk.
Right after that, we ran to Ross, Dollar Tree, and Target, hoping to find me a dress still. By this time, it was probably 6:00 or so, maybe later, so I was running out of time and energy. At Ross, I found one!! It's a purple one with white flowers. AND has sleeves. And a back. And long enough. Woo!! :) We ran to Dollar Tree to find some stuff for Bentley to answer her date to prom (see post below). And Target just because Target is fun :D
We got home finally around 7:30ish. Almost 11 hours straight of being gone. [then I realized Tuesdays, when I have my earliest class and work afterwards, it's pretty much this same schedule, but I feel like I did so much more and gone so much longer!] We got everything ready to answer, tried to get his address, and you could tell we were tired and a bit slap-happy. We made fork friends (again, see post below).
As we were all about getting to bed, we got the address. So, Bentley and I ran over to his house to answer. I turned off the car, and we see a white car coming down the cul-de-sac. Uh oh..is it him?! Then my inside lights turn on, and the car turns into the driveway. I hurry and start the car, and we just leave. We were SO thankful that if we would have left 3 minutes earlier, we would have been in his yard when the car came home. And that would be awkward.
Now, it's time for me to sleep. It's been too long.
Happy Easter!!! :)
