It has been noted that the most popular souvenir I've ever brought back from a trip is the $3.99 pack of pirate crusaders (basically red and black army guys) I grabbed for Carter from Cracker Barrel. Purchased at breakfast the day I left to come home, of course.
The kids have been fighting over these plastic figures, and Ivy sneaks and plays with them when the boys are at school.
She does love the tutu-wearing pink plush pony purse I got her, too.
(I'm really glad I checked it before bed- she had stashed away two sticks of string cheese and some chocolate eggs.)
One of my online besties, Kim at Prairie Mama worked her fingers to the bone and sold her finest at Blissdom's handmade marketplace. Of course I came home with this twirly sundress dress for Ivy.
It's so happy and sunny just like Ivy just like the day we had yesterday just like the spring that is almost here I can breathe it.
