We spent an afternoon exploring our new town's Downtown one day. We went to the library, walked to a pizza place for lunch and then walked to a cool candy store for a treat. We went into this candy store and my kids eye balls fell out of their heads. Imagine the scene we made with me trying to scoop up four different sets of eye balls before the store patrons mistook them for gumballs. My kids walked around with dazed looks and drool pouring out of their open mouths. They were too excited to even speak for a few minutes (and what lovely moments those were...)
Like kids in a candy shop. It was great.
We managed to leave the store (with everyone's eye balls) only $10 dollars lighter and several lolly pops heaver. When we got outside I noticed a sign advertising "Wacky Wednesdays--wear a wacky hat or do a silly dance and get 10% off your purchase!" It was a Wednesday--I could have saved a dollar!
I think we've moved to a charming new town. I am looking forward to exploring more.
