must shop M


when you order teeny bop style from Delias

so yes last post there was only one shirt
BUT
I couldn't pass up a shirt that referenced my love of cake or sweets or candy
aka all the above that deals with sugar

so I bought.
Justification
Both on sale 
AND
free shipping

works for me!
Will be happy to rock these soon!

blue swings



that we raced for just to jump off and make out legs hurt 

or a super slippery slide that made me see stars when I flew off wearing my snow pants.

or the bushes that we played in

or the merry go round that we can't believe we still have all our figures from

or the monkey bars where Steve harp feel off and broke his arm

it could go on and on

Oh the reminiscing took place tonight

Biked with B to dinner at red ball and then took a stroll through the neighborhood and past our old elementary school

Crestview now called northpointe

good times good time
