Fun Friday!

Luke's typical speech session was rescheduled for yesterday, which meant that the boys and I had a free morning while Emma was at school. We decided, well I decided to take them to check out this consignment shop in Dallas called Small Pockets. I follow them on instagram and have even purchased a few items off of instagram from the shop, but have yet to make it to the store. (Side story: I even purchased a Christmas bubble for Harvey and messaged to ask if they had any matching big sister dresses and she so kindly pulled several dresses that matched and then shipped my purchases to me!)

Emma's dress was purchased at Small Pockets.
(I don't have a good picture of Harvey's bubble.)

Back to my Friday… I had seen on instagram that every Friday from 10:30-11:00 they have a story time so I thought we would shop and listen to the story and then head home. Well, we arrived at 10:00 when they opened and they immediately asked Luke if he wanted to play with trains in the lower level of the store (I could totally keep an eye on him, don't worry)… ummmm yes he would, thanks. I shopped and found a few things to purchase #sorrybrian and then Harvey and I went downstairs to sit with Luke during story time. The gal in charge read two stories about "pizza" and Luke soaked up every minute! Then she led the kiddos in a craft where they made "pizza" using paper plates, construction paper shredded (for cheese of course), stickers for pepperoni, and paint for the sauce. Suuuuper cute. I was not expecting a craft, or at least not more than a coloring page! When Luke finished his pizza, she even wrapped it in foil. We will definitely be returning, and very soon!

We had such a good time and everyone was in good spirits so we wondered next door to a little sandwich place called East Hampton Sandwich Co. I had a turkey, bacon, avocado sandwich and it was delicious. Luke had a grilled cheese. We both had some amazing chips, and Luke loved his blueberry lemonade. We will definitely be going back. Probably next Friday, who wants to join?!

My lunch date

Entertaining each other while mama polishes off her sandwich… and licks her plate.

All in all, it was a fun morning and one we will repeat soon. I already have the Friday of spring break on my calendar so Emma can enjoy the fun too!

XOXO,
