Day 15: Saint Patty's Day

I'm writing this the day after everything, because I was too tired last night when I finally headed to do it that I thought the writing would be poor. We started the day off pretty slowly, ultimately getting dressed in something green for St. Patrick's Day. I had worn my only green shirt the day before, so I wore a clover necklace instead.



The first thing we did was price out some food for the baptism luncheon on Sunday. It was between a couple buckets of chicken from KFC, or this local barbecue place. The barbecue place won as soon as we entered the door and smelled the air. I forgot to grab a picture of the place, but I'll snag one when we pick up the food on Sunday. Next on the list was Archiver's, an emporium for all things scrapbook.



After that we headed to the better of the two local malls, Memorial City. It was pretty large and there were a ton of people there for a Thursday afternoon, but I guess it's Spring break around here. Most of the time I spent the day walking with Carol and Katie as they shopped for an outfit for Julie for the baptism, and then they had a coupon at New York & Company where they had to spend $150 bucks to get $70 off. I was the official judge. Here they are trying on identical tops.



They didn't keep either of those tops, but here's a picture of all the loot they walked away with from the mall and Archiver's. In the corner of the bed is also a pair of shorts and a hoodie that I picked up from American Eagle.



After that we basically waited at home for Scott to get home and we went out to dinner at a restaurant that Carol has been raving about since her last visit. What's her favorite food from here? Not important. The name of the place when she would mention it? Always changing. The only thing she could remember was that they had italian sodas which she said were awesome.



To her credit they were pretty good, but we asked the waitress and she said that they're Sprite, club soda, snowcone flavoring, and creamer. For the record, the name of the place was Carino's.



That's all the pictures you get! I like this format a lot more, but it's definitely a bigger pain to work with in this blog software. Everytime I get to a new section where I want to include a new picture it inserts it to the top of the blog. I then have to go into the HTML view, cut the picture code and paste it where I want. From looking at the previews though, this is definitely a better way to post this type of stuff. So today's events might be cataloged tomorrow, in similar late fashion. Anyway, I'm going to go before I accidentally hit select all again and nearly wipe out my work here.
