I spent my weekend with these creeps (minus Eli - he was in Anchor Blue checking out a Sonic the Hedgehog t-shirt).

We traversed up and down and all around the Columbia Center Mall. If you want to have a whole lot of fun, I suggest going school clothes shopping on the last Saturday before school starts - I especially recommend this if you want to walk arm and arm with perfect strangers or stand in amusement park long lines.

But really it wasn't so bad. We finished the most of our shopping by 2pm, got lunch at Panda Express (Dairy Queen for the little, less cultured ones), took some silly photo-booth photos, had a run in with a terrifying grasshopper (just ask Eli), and made it home safe and sound with our bounty.

I was actually quite surprised at how easy and almost fun the shopping was. Plus, I've really missed the sibs, and it was good to just laugh and feel like a part of the family again.

Can you believe there's only a week left in August?! Bring on September!
