wish list for THREE…

for as long as I’ve been shopping at target, it’s been near impossible to get in and out without spending $100. now (i don’t make it a habit, but) with two kids in tow, it’s absolutely mission impossible to get in and out under $100 in less than one hour. just getting through the $1 aisle is an event. and all bets are off when we get to the toy aisles, as DB examines almost everything within arms reach.

“mommy, let’s stop here, okay?!”

“mommy, look at this one”

“mommy, there are more Cars over here”

yep, we are OBSESSED with wheels at the moment.

i tried soooo soooo very hard to convince my little matey that a pirate birthday party would be soooo soooo fun!!

i had a vision…hunting pirate treasures in the sandbox, walking the plank over the splash pool, bandanas and eye patches for all the guests…I had it ALL planned out.

and in typical parenting fashion, it NEVER goes as planned. he wasn’t having it and repeatedly demanded requested a Cars party.

soooo, we’re having a Cars party.

next weekend.

a backyard bash with a drive-in movie theater.

Cars is the feature presentation.

shocking I know.

even less shocking is how little this sweet boy’s wish list deviates from the theme.

 a / b / c / d / e / f / g / h / i

oh, and our Cars party…it will be better than any ol’ pirate party!!

KA-CHOW!!
