Back to School Dates

School starts in just a few short weeks.  I already feel the need to spend every second with my kids before they are gone.  All three of them will be in school ALL DAY long.

We purchased all the required school supplies this week and I took each child out on their back to school date.

It started with Liv.  We started out at the Cheesecake Factory for the new Oreo/Brownie Deluxe Cheesecake and Shirley Temples.  Then we went shopping for the traditional first day of school outfit.  This little girl of mine has some serious style.

Next, I took Cole to his requested date location, Fuzziwigs Candy Factory.  He has such a sweet tooth and this was all he wanted to do.  He easily filled up bag after bag of candy at this fun store.  Then he chose his new school outfit.  Cole is definitely my easiest child to go shopping with.  He likes everything and pretty much goes along with my suggestions.

The last date was Ethan.  We started shopping for clothes first and he has proven to be my most difficult shopper.  He likes very specific things and won't compromise.  He also has a very particular sense of style.  We found a few great things for him and then we headed out to Applebee's for Wings and drinks.

Overall, a fun week, with lots of school prep and excitement.
