frank was off today, so kellie and i took full advantage and opted for a girls day out, accompanied by momma beth! i worked for a bit this morning, but when i got home it was showers and out the door...we started the day at the christmas tree shops!! it just opened on niagara falls blvd...but it is a store that i have loved for over a year now since kelly (syracuse) introduced me to the one near her. we got some good deals, i got a great storage basket for the twins closet, it was the perfect shade of green and only $5.99!! beth got a few things for around the house and a "piano" for tuscan...with a microphone! he loves it, plays it all day long and actually is willing to share it with his brothers. they have learned from him to put the microphone to their mouth and make noise! too cute..
tuscan, the one man traveling band!

from there we headed to kohls, of course found some more really great deals! cant waste coupons!! and we were off to the outlets! we met a friend of beth's at applebees where we ordered a round of pomegranate margarita's and to much fried food! kellie was excited to see that here in buffalo, applebees still serves her favorite chicken sandwich, so that made lunch all the more fulfilling!
we found some cute clothes for the kids, but not nearly the deals we were expecting, my deal of the day was two pairs of jeans at aero for $10 each...and i love them! the best part was, i actually have a butt in them...so of course i had to buy both! and i got a really cute pair of pants at the gap for $6. but i had gone in search of jeans for tuscan and sweaters for me...i didnt get either!
after the mall we picked up some wings and headed home for a homemade pizza party, per kellie's request! when frank and i lived in CO, we through a first annual new years day pizza party, to help everyone over come their hang overs...we made the dough and supplied the sauce and cheese and everyone brought their favorite toppings...well that party 4 years ago made kellie fall in love with franks homemade bbq chicken pizza!! and i must say it truly is delicious...he even made it with a whole wheat crust this time! and we had a philly cheesesteak pizza! maybe now that the house is ours this year we will carry on a tradition we had tried to start several years ago! (pizza party, our house, new years day!!)
kellie also bought wall-e for the kids today, tuscan snuggled up to watch it after dinner tonight...i think its his new fav!! thanks aunt "tellie"
