On Friday, we had HFG again...and we again had some surprises.
After we ate & did our lesson on marriage, the kids started emerging from the basement and this is what we were greeted with......
Isn't he lovely! Doesn't he make a beautiful girl!
And here is Dakota his (or her) prince!
After this we aren't sure we are bringing Trent anymore!
Then on Saturday we had a Ladies Night Out. We left the church and headed to Rivertown Mall. When we arrived we were greeted, inside Kohl's door, with Jeanette dressed like an old lady. She was sporting a wig, half glasses, a large bright pink Moo-Moo type dress, green boa and a lot of bright makeup! Special!!
We were then given our orders...each group was given $10 and an hour to see how many items they could get...we could not purchase like items & only one item per store & we had to have a receipt & the group could not divide...ready Set GO!!!!!.
Unfortunately, we had to have Jeanette in our group....oh the looks! So Funny!
Anyway about the game...
We realized early on, that the object was to purchase insignificant items from the store. We purchased price tags, a spoon, ketchup packet, hanger, shoe box, a bag, a piece of thread, a straw, a used watch battery, a tootsie roll...you get the idea. We ended with 22 items and get this $5+ left!!!!!
We thought we were doing most excellent with $5 another group ended up with over $6!
The winning group had 25 items....I'm so ashamed....I let the Rexford girls down! It was a tough fight though!
We were then given permission to eat at the food court.
Then off to the next event!
You had to know it would include Meijers!
My second home!
As a team we had 30 minutes to gather 20 items from any part of the store...only rule to live animals!
We met back at the fitting rooms and there you were given a different cart of goods and you had 1 hour to put everything back! Perfect I know this store! Only problem we had one bag that was our stopper...we couldn't find were that bag went for the life of us! I'm pretty sure we walked up and down every isle in that store! I sure would have loved to be in the security room watching the cameras that night! Wonder what they were saying??? Well, as time wound down we ended up with 1 item...stink! Oh Cosy, you found the perfect item to stump our group!!!!
We left for home and made a quick drive-thru McDonald's for some ice cream!
What a fun evening! and just think of the smiles we brought on the people's faces at the mall and Meijers Security camera watchers!

Never a dull moment with the Buckners!! I play that shopping game a lot all by myself. Pick up stuff I think I want to buy and put half of it back before checkout.
Sounds like everyone had some fun!
