Cookies and Crayons

What do you do when it's 14 degrees outside? Go walk around Walmart, of course! Last Sunday afternoon we took Elisabeth to Walmart to let her walk around a nice big open space, and she sure had fun! Below is my attempt at uploading a short video clip from a new favorite website, Smilebox.

On that same trip we bought Elisabeth her very first box of Crayola crayons. For some reason, as her mom, I feel this is monumental in her life. Coloring is such a big part of childhood, so her very first box of crayons is extra special! Her first drawing is already hanging on our refrigerator! On our way out back into the 14 degree weather we stopped to buy a box of Thin Mint cookies from two frozen adorable little Girl Scouts and their moms. What troopers! I remember going door-to-door to sell cookies so I'm not sure what selling them in front of Walmart would be like. Either way, 14 degrees is too cold to be selling Girl Scout cookies!
