Seems we have not celebrated family gatherings with Devin and Hailey on their birthday for a long time. So for the last 3 or 4 years, we have planned a little grandparent/grandkid outing with them sometime in the season of birthdays. Hailey turned eleven years old on February 8th and Devin turned fourteen on January 23rd. (Same day as Lily.) So today was the day. We picked them up and took them for a small shopping trip and lunch. Their Mother had said they needed shoes so shoes was the plan...We started out at the Shoe Carnival. Devin insisted that he did not need shoes but Mama said different. The first shoes Papa found, Devin selected. I will admit that under some persuasion, he tried on a couple other pair of shoes. But returned to that first pair. Good Choice! Yet, can you imagine a grandson of the Papa does not like to shop for shoes, when the Papa would have spent half a day looking around.
On the contrary, Hailey is quiet the shopper. She was very delighted to learn that she wears a size seven in ladies. However the pair she choose were kid size fives. The rest of the time while her indecisive brother, Devin was 'not wanting to shop,' Hailey was eagerly finding more shoes she would love to have in ladies seven. Sadly however, we needed to limit the shopping trip to one pair today. More will come with time.
I choose the same thing.
And then Hailey decided she wanted to eat healthy, so all three of us ordered the Chicken Salad. 
And Devin chose the Three Cheese Hickory Hamburger -- which he could not eat -- he took it home to Mama.
