Here are the results of a successful day of shopping. Mom and I had a good time out hitting the mall this afternoon...and I have the picture to prove it!
Tomorrow is a big day for Rob and I at church. First, we will both (along with all the others in our RCIA group) be called to the front of the church for what is called the Rite of Sending - where we (and our sponsors) declare that we have accepted the tenants of the Catholic church, and as a result our parish will 'recommend' us to the Bishop. Then Rob and I and our sponsors, Tom and Trina, will head to Yakima to actually meet with the Bishop in what is called the Rite of Election. So, standing up in front of the parish, then meeting the Bishop - a girl needs something new to wear, am I right?
Mom and I started at Shopko where I grabbed one blouse...kind of a panic move, that 'what if I don't find anything better' kind of purchase. This may or may not remain as part of my wardrobe. Then we hit the mall, and Christopher and Banks was having a buy one get one 1/2 off sale, so I found a nice sweater for tomorrow and scored an extra everyday type shirt at 1/2 off...and Mom scored an outfit for herself too. The only problem was, I couldn't find any new black slacks I liked.
Thankfully, I also needed some Bare Escentuals so we headed to Macy's and got what we needed, but decided to make a pass through the Women's department...and score again! Not only a nice, reasonable priced Alfani pair of slacks, but a lovely striped sweater too! I think I've just found my outfit for tomorrow. And the other sweater...well there are several more Sundays to be called to the front of the church!
