So School has started and let me tell you shopping for 3 kids is killer on the wallet!
We went to Payless while their store was BOGO and it still cost us $75.00...
middle girls choice..the toes light up and they look so cute!
little guy picked these Cars shoes and they also light up...so cute when he runs!
oldest girl picked these..She is a size Women's 8 already!! Love these and I might have to get a pair myself!
I did some shopping for myself at CVS and bought the Revlon "Gray Suede" which is a very neutral color
Next we have to shop for some Fall clothes for oldest as she doesn't have to wear a uniform like the little ones.
So what Fav. brands of Nail Polish do you buy? Any great Fall colors out there?

Treasuring Emma~ A Book Review
Emma has put everyone else first in her life. Now at nearly 25, has she missed her chance at marriage?
Emma was Adam's first love but circumstances made them both choose different paths in life. Emma's heart breaks all over again when Adam returns to the Amish community of Middlefield, Ohio, years later.
For the past ten years, Emma has been a care-giver. First for her mother who unsuccessfully battled breast cancer, and now for her grandmother who gets more frail with each passing year. Emma has always put the needs of others above her own. With more time on her hands, she determines to focus on herself and her dream of opening a rescue shelter for stray animals in the community.
With Adam's return come feelings Emma's long buried. They're older and life hasn't turned out the way they thought it would. Adam's feelings for Emma are stronger than ever, but will he be able to convince her to put the past aside and give their love a chance?
I really enjoyed once again immersing myself in the Amish world if but for a little bit. This story was a joy to follow but it left me wondering what happened to a couple of the characters in here. I do hope that there is another book coming out that explains some of the questions I have.
BookSneeze sent me this book to read and review and all opinions are my own.
