First, we made our way to Trader Joe's! She loves the chocolate covered blueberries and we found some Easter candy for Bill. Best part was that since it wasn't Saturday, it wasn't crowded! What a bonus. Second stop was in the plaza a block away in Plano at Williams Sonoma. I didn't realize how much Ellie would love it there! It didn't hurt that they were serving blueberry waffles as an enticement to buy the waffle mix .. which we did!
Next time you talk to Ellie, ask her what she picked out in the gadget section. She was disappointed when she found something she wanted and said, 'Oh it's more than the $5 I have!" Not to worry, we put it in our cart!
From Williams Sonoma we went to Kenny's Burger Joint for lunch - and since it was right at noon it filled up all around us ... and for the highlight of the day we went to the theatre to see Cinderella.

For our special day we'd also made dinner plans with the Schuler's too! We met up with them at the Chiloso around the corner. We didn't realize we had one so close to home as we've only been to the one close to work! What a find!
We enjoyed our Tex-Mex with the grown-ups at one table, and the kids at another. Great way to end the week. Robin and Ellie, although both in 3rd grade are in different classes, while Lincoln is in 4th grade at Whitt too.
After dinner we went back to their house for dessert. As we were arriving I received a photo from my mom with Dawn's mom together, as they were all in Pennsylvania together to celebrate Easter. The two Grammys! So now as Robin and Ellie call each other cousins, Dawn has started to refer to me as her, 'almost-cousin'!
So our group quickly snapped a picture of the families together and sent that back. We shared a Face Time call so that we could all laugh at the irony of it all. Too funny to be together on the same night!
