Week(s) in Review- August 23rd- September 6th


August 23rd- September 6th

Been a little too busy to post lately- I also lost my camera charger for a few days which was a TRAGEDY, especially since I sent my fujifilm camera to Harold in Afghanistan. Luckily it was recovered a few days later. =)


Harrison & I went to Brainerd, MN to visit one of my best high school girls Kristen (check out her great food blog!) We had a ton of fun!


On Friday Harrison had a playdate with a friend, Odin! They had fun. Harrison really hasn't spent enough time with other kids- he was pretty fascinated. It's always good to hang out with people who have kids! (don't do that much here in MN)


We went out for dinner friday night @ Maddens (yummy!) then came home to relax. Harrison decided to take control of the remote, and changed the channel to the Redskins game. Hubby is OBSESSED and I thought it was funny- a sign for Daddy! I told him to come home soon because his little HP was ready for some football!


Saturday we went shopping in Nisswa (really touristy area) all day- great area.










My little Fox in Socks!



Harrison Gage Price











He's discovered the Xylophone (see video in post below) and is literally obsessed. I've never seen him be so interested in one single toy! One day I tried to give him a bottle, but he whined and squirmed until I sat him back by his precious xylophone. I think I've got a little musician on my hands! =)


Goof!




- Harrison had a saltine cracker for the first time- we went to Raaper's for my brother's birthday (two for one drinks, and have price appetizers. GREAT deal. Too bad no drinks for me! hehe) He really enjoyed it! He was thirsty the morning after though-

-Harold called & said he officially has less than 60 days!! YAY!!!!! He was thinking it was going to be the first week in November, but he things he'll be leaving the first or second week in October!! I'm thrilled. Harrison, my parents and I are leaving for Texas October 3rd, so excited! It's going to be sad to say goodbye to Grandma and Grandpa though!

-We took HP to church on Sunday for the first time in awhile (guess the summer made us too lazy!) He was SO good. Honestly, I couldn't believe it. Just sat on my lap and played with some paper and other toys. Perfect angel!

- The weather has been great here in MN! We've been trying to get outside more and hang out in the shade & on our swing. I am really starting to get my fall allergies though, and am not taking anything due to being pregnant. That coupled with my general lack of energy from pregnancy, it's been hard for me to even get our walks for the day in.

The Children's Place






Here I go again with the clothes. =) It is a passion of mine, especially getting them for CHEAP!! The Children's Place is having a really great Labor Day Sale (at least the boys, haven't checked out the girls... sniff sniff) Some great deals, especially on shorts. AND if you use the code FA79 at checkout, you will save an additional 15% off of EVERYTHING you buy! Can't beat that! Happy Shopping!

65 cent Tanks


So, I've seen a lot of people post photos of good grocery deals, but here's something a little different. =) I'm not too great with grocery stuff yet- still need to get better at clipping coupons and finding deals. What I do know about, however, is clothes!








Just wanted to share these 6 tank tops that I got at Old Navy for .65 each! I won a $45 off of $100 coupon, coupled with some great deals, and voila! I got a lot of other great deals too- The most I spent was $8.77 on a skirt. I got my son 4 shirts for around $4 each. I have a new-found love for Old Navy!
