Shopping!

This morning Steve and a few of his friends went on a golf trip to South Carolina for the weekend. I don't think I've ever seen him quite so excited. When we go anywhere he packs in about 30 seconds. I always pack the night before and have lists and everything is all laid out for departure. Whereas he, on occasion, packed at 4 in the morning before we leave the house for a flight at 5:00. However, last night, he was laying out his outfits, making sure he had absolutely everything he could need and laid out his 'flying blazer' which is a somewhat of a joke, except for the fact that when we fly anywhere, he always wears a casual blazer. It's cute really. I'll be in my lululemons and he's in a blazer.... It was really nice to see him so excited. I think it's partially to do with the golfing aspect. He just LOVES it! I've always been surrounded by golfers -- My older brother is a professional golfer, my younger brother is an amazing golfer, all my cousins golf, most of my friends golf. Whereas I on the other hand, try. It's totally random whether I'm decent or not. There has been the occasional golf game where my fellow golfers are surprised at my skill and think that it must be a genetic reason that we're all great golfers. Other times, I'll give up after the 9th stoke and move onto the next hole, vowing I'll never golf again.

I much prefer shopping trips... The cost can be about the same as a round of golf with a cart, and it just lasts so much longer, you can wear those jeans all year long and if you're taking a cart, the mall really is more exercise right?!

So, Sarah and I have planned a shopping trip in light of the golf trip and we're off to America!! Look out shoppers, when I stay focused and keep the right mind set, my shopping game is unstoppable.

Here's a little Sophia treat for today, she had not made an appearance on the blog in a while and I feel she might be getting a complex. This one is from a cottage trip a few weeks ago.
