Shopping with Maria

I am the home room Mom for Kelly's class again this year.  I collect $10 at the beginning of the year from everyone in the class for a class Christmas/teacher birthday gift.  Her teacher really wanted her 1st grade class to adopt an "angel" from an angel tree in lieu of a personal Christmas gift for herself.  She feels like it really teaches these 6 & 7 year olds about the true meaning of Christmas!  Since I am the Room Mom.....I was the one that did the shopping....and I thought it would be great for Kelly to pick out some things for the "angel" she picked off the tree!  She picked a 6 year old girl!  Kelly thought it would be fun if one of her friends from her class was able to go shopping with us too....so she picked Maria and the three of us had a fun afternoon.

While shopping at Wal-Mart.....we ran into Santa!  They took this adorable picture for us!!!
 The girls picked out a Doctor Barbie, City backpack, fleece blanket, and puzzle.  I also got a shirt, pair of jeans, Old Navy fleece jacket and pants, scarf, hat, and mittens at Old Navy with some great black Friday specials!
  We hope our angel has a wonderful Christmas!
After an afternoon of shopping.....the girls enjoyed Kelly's favorite snack place - CHERRY BERRY!
