Last Saturday, we had the opportunity to drive around our new little town thanks to our new friends the Scroogins who loaned us their second car, so we can have a break from the hotel.
We wanted to go to the State Fair so bad, but it was raining it actually rained all day long. By the time we got home, our pants were so wet.
Our first task was to find shoes for little Sophia who already outgrew the one she has. Let me tell you that was almost mission impossible. We went to 5 different stores ( we actually visit more than that, but for her shoes we did look into 5) including walmart and none of them had shoe of her size. We ended buying some Merrill shoes that cost us an eye it is probably the most expensive pair of shoe we had bought for kids yet. $40.00 !
We also went to try to figure out what kind of winter gear we should buy, man it is a hard task . For Danielle we have to buy -40 F boots, and the coat we weren't 100 % sure so we did not buy anything just yet. We have to hurry up because it can start snowing as earliest as end of september. In less than month the temperature is going to drop to 30 and below So exciting! not really. We also went to Mc Donalds for lunch and to this place a hole in the wall Mexican place. We pay as we were eating at Chuys but we were actually eating at Arandas if that makes sense. I decided that I will be come an expert in Mexican food because my chicken enchiladas and refried beans are much better and cheaper, so I will have all our new friends over for Mexican dinner every so often! we were told prices should go down after the tourism season ends! which I am looking forward to because there are some restaurants that i would like to try I just heard great things about it!
Here are some pictures enjoy them.
These are the kind of slippers that I want!
