Fancy Time

On Wednesday we jumped into Ali and Benjamin's hip, fancy Denverite life and visited the Fancy Tiger with them. It's a fabric store...(or crafty place)...but it's not your Grandma's store (no offense Grandma).  It's the most gorgeous, sophisticated fabrics that make your inspiration meter go off the charts.

This is my new child model. 

She used to run from the camera. 

Now she flashes her age and a little sass.

Picture I wished I'd gotten..

Mimi hula hooping with this:

The Crew:

Mimi kept asking, "how much is this? How much is this? How much is THIS?!"

She found some $36 yarn. Needless to say, we didn't bring it home.

We grabbed lunch at a fun mexican restaurant/lounge and fully destroyed it. Bode hit his "done" mark somewhere before ordering drinks, but we soldiered through...let's just say he crawled through the entire (thankfully at the time EMPTY) restaurant and Mimi discovered the leftover gum under the bar tables (with her eyes, thank goodness, not hands or mouth). 

Oh Ali. If you never want to eat with us in a restaurant again, we forgive you. 

It was SO fun though! (especially when we realized that Ali and Benjamin and Matt live MINUTES away from all of that wonderfulness. They walked!)

Mimi was so inspired by the hip scene that she insisted on wearing my hat all the way home in the back seat.

(and also insisted that I take a picture of her blanket)

This is all the fabric we could afford this trip. 

Tres chic, no?!
