was on a mission to find myself a shrug for the wedding and we also
needed to pick up a thing or two for Alice's friend Emily's Birthday.
I didn't find a single shrug, but we did manage to get some pretty
sweet deals at The Disney Store (and neither of us ate pavement on the
way out of the store, Cindy). Since her party is Tinkerbell themed I
figured Tinkerbell was the way to go for presents as well. We got her
a Tink shirt, a Tink doll, and an awesome Tink gift bag that is very
much like a reusable grocery store bag that cost no more than a paper
gift bag so I figure she'll make good use out of it afterwards as
well. They're pretty darn sweet, if you ask me, but I wish they made
them with more obscure characters. Hell even Alice in Wonderland is
hard to come by in that store. And that's why when I found a adorable
Alice t-shirt I slyly added it to my stash and I'll save it for
Alice's bday.
After we paid we went downstairs to the food court to grab a bite and
ride the carousel. Let me tell you, there is no way I could go to that
mall and NOT take Alice to the carousel - it simply can't be done.
Anyway, of course she had a blast, but she really had her heart set on
riding in the spinning seat. So I bought another token and asked the
woman if we could wait until the next time around so we could have a
shot at sitting in the spinning seat. She was happy to let us wait,
and as soon as we were allowed to enter, Al made a bee line to the
spin seat - and we scored! A little while later a Hispanic boy and
his dad came by us and I could just tell he desperately wanted to ride
in the spin seat, so I asked them to join us. They did and both kids
(and probably us grown ups too) had so much fun!
