Today I go into base housing and
inform them I want to break our lease.
Normally on a military base that isn't a big deal.
However, since we've gone to privatization
and have a company now that we deal with, there have
been numerous of things happening not very good to people.
They are all having to pay really large amounts of money to move off base.
I have felt completely blessed over the years
to be able to live on base.
But it's time for another journey.
Let's just hope they see it that way.
So today is break the lease day.
So please pray that today be good.
That there aren't any hitches with anything,
they don't give me a hard time, and we
pass our inspections with flying colors without any money
coming out of pocket.

I took this photo of Kira right before she was about to get a bath. I don't really know if she hates getting them or not, but if I tell her she's getting one she seems excited! It's really afterward that she is so excited cause she gets a treat!
Alyssa just chillin' reading a book hanging out!
So yesterday was fun!
We went to the play, which was good. Jesse was a very good singer
and I felt like he played the role really well also.
After the play, we decided to head into town to go shopping.
This wasn't really planned but something told me to go to Penny's.
And I am glad we did!
They were having a really good sale.
We headed to the kids department first.
They have the cutest girls clothes out for spring!
We got A 4 shirts, a pair of Bermuda shorts, and a bathing suit.
Then we went to the woman's department.
I specifically wanted to buy a bathing suit since they have just come out
with them and right now they won't be hand picked over.
I found a really cute one, and it was totally fun trying them on with A too.
We realized that the board shorts look the best, and a bikini top.
Totally cute! I was excited that I finally found a decent bathing suit
and there were plenty on the racks {since of course it's still trying to snow here! LOL}
I did pick up a shirt though too, only it is too big. So I have to go
back and exchange it.
I will do that this week {yes Lori on Wed. k?}
After that and ironically enough,
I realized that although I love my black wool coat from Old Navy it really
is too big.
But I didn't want to spend a lot on another coat.
So we headed to the thrift store {I know coat buying after bathing suit buying.. SSHHH!}
Anyway.. They are having a sale on coats, cause well you know
it's time to get rid of them..
Hopefully!
And we go in my favorite thrift store.
I wanted another coat like the one I had {the black ON one}
but finding a coat like that isn't always easy.
Some of the coats there are quite ugly.
And I didn't want to spend more than 10 bucks.
But there in all those racks was such a jacket!
It's a navy blue wool coat almost like mine but a little more vintage!
I tried it on and it was made for me!
And the coolest part? It was only 7 bucks! SCORE!
I have to share something with you..
I love to shop, don't we all?
And there are things I really love.
Like I could have a million of them...
Purses. Coats. And shoes.
Those are my down fall.
Lucky for me I limit myself completely.
I have for years because I know me and know myself, it can get out of hand.
However, I am giving my black coat away cause it's way too big.
So the new blue one will take the place!!
I just wanted to share with you that
if I let myself I'd be in trouble with shoes, purses, and coats.
So I looked again to see what else they had and another jacket stood out to me.
LOL!
But it was an XS and was from Gap.
I can just share another secret with ya, I always seem to either pick up Gap items
or Old Navy items at thrift stores. I don't know why but I do.
I thought A could wear it, it was completely the cutest!
So she puts it on and it fits her like it was meant to be!
That coat? Only 6 bucks.
Both are in great shape too!
You cannot beat that with a stick.
So they are going to the dry cleaners today!
Sure we won't be able to wear them much more this year, but hey you can never
go wrong with a coat! LOL.
And for 13 bucks you definitely cannot go wrong!
Our last stop was Wal-Mart.
We were going in there for something specific.
A was getting a reward for completing her choir chart 2 weeks w/o any X's.
She wanted a toy!
So we head there and of course have to look at everything.
Well?
Another bathing suit for A, a calendar that was dirt cheap,
and her toy and we left there..
The bathing suit?
It's her "first" 2 piece.
We took photos of our bathing suits and sent them to Dayv.
I am sure he's going to have a heart attack when he sees our little
girl in a 2 piece.
But.. I do have a point here.
A is short, but she has a long torso.
That makes it hard to fit her for a one piece
with the way she is shaped.
So truthfully a 2 piece will always do her better.
But it was weird seeing her in one I'll tell you that!
She looks great in it though!
I'll have to keep ya updated on what D thinks! LOL.
The only other thing we bought today were flip-flops.
You can never have too many pair of those!
In every color imaginable, cause they were on sale too!
It was so much fun spending the day shopping with A!
She told me it was tons of fun laughing and having a good time with me today too!
We came home, tried on all of our stuff and hung out.
inform them I want to break our lease.

Sounds like so much fun... I just love shopping days like that. M and I went to Kohl's yesterday because we had an extra 30% off coupon (which can also be used on sale stuff). I got the cutest terra cotta colored purse with the sweetest brown floral lining! I bet you'd approve, being the purse-lover you are ;)
