Fun Saturday

We have mentioned in the past that Jr. Princess is freakishly good at games of chance. In fact, Starshine HATES when I suggest a coin toss to make decisions because it is a forgone conclusion that Jr. Princess will win. So, today, the girls tossed a coin to see who had to come with me to Home Depot while the other got to stay home with M&M Dad and pull weeds. (I can't believe my trip to Home Depot was less cool than weed pulling!) Jr. Princess actually lost the coin toss and had a huge meltdown because she has not yet learned to lose gracefully.

Well, she sure changed her tune when we got to Home Depot. It was kids' clinic day, and she got her very own apron and got to make her very own bulletin board for her room!

We gave her back one of her dry erase markers for the whiteboard (they had been revoked after the "drawing on pillowcase" incident of spring '09), and she picked where to hang it in her room. She thought it was sooooo cool that Starshine didn't make one, too. Apparently we need to take more Saturday morning trips to Home Depot.

Later on we went to Dairy Queen to get Jr. Princess's free ice cream with her Sheriff's coupon...

Starshine and M&M Dad decided to ride their bikes there. She felt like such a big girl...

She definitely earned her ice cream. We estimate this was a 5 mile round trip...

Too bad she didn't get pulled over by the police on her way - she was wearing her helmet!
