A Much Needed Escape

This past weekend my sister Breanna and I got away for a little "girl time." It was a fun time together, and a great time of shopping! For those of you who do not live in Redding, this may be harder to appreciate, but our mall is quite lame in all honesty. When I was waiting for Rylin to arrive, I would often take Kacia to "walk the mall", but after 2-3 minutes we were back where we started, and would circle the loop again and again and... Well, you get the picture, our mall is not so much a real mall, but a collection of a handful of stores. So on Saturday Breanna and I hopped in the car and drove down to Sacramento to do some serious shopping. I had almost forgotten that malls are often more than one story high, and have more than one shoe store inside! Needless to say, we enjoyed our shopping kid and stroller-free, and we moved entirely on our own time schedule, which was basically shop until our feet hurt or the money ran out. After sleeping an entire night without being called out of bed, and only getting up in the morning 10 minutes before breakfast closed, I came home to Kevin and the girls well rested and ready to start a new annual tradition with my sis!
