Yesterday we transitioned into a fairly normal kind of day. Well, normal for some folks. The whole family went on a shopping trip.
Our first search took us to Dick’s and then Academy. We were looking gorgeous a pair of those iconic island staples … Tevas sandals. Those would be for me. The pair I have are at least five or six years old, are a size too big, and are finally coming apart at the seams. No luck at Duck’s, but Academy up here had a pair (Note: the one in Galveston did not have any).
Since we were in a mall after the first failure, Christi and AnnaGrace (soon to be followed by Nani) disappeared into the nothingness to sniff stinky candles and search for stuffies. AnnaGrace ended up with two cute outfits.
From the mall we did the quick Academy run, then headed to Target. The younger kids had some money burning a hole in their pockets. Luke ended up with a notebook. For AnnaGrace? Candy wins. Chris looked for sweater. Hey, it’s cold up here. But no go.
We finished the eclectic shopping extravaganza at H.E.B. Christi needed to pick up some goodies for our March Madness semi-final supper n snacks evening.
And boy, did that food get put to use. Chicken sliders never tasted so good. Especially after Houston’s amazing come from behind victory against Duke. They now play in the final game on Monday. Oh, but the best part of the game was watching Josh and Caleb leaping and frolicking in the last three seconds of play. Wish you guys could have gotten into the game a little bit there.
Exodus 33:14 says, Then He replied, “My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”
Father, thanks for our “normal” shopping trip. It was fun. Amen.
