First Day of School and CSN review

I wonder how many blog posts began with the title 'First Day of School' today?!  My kids were not super excited.  On the outside.  But to be sure they were on the inside, right?!  How can you not be excited about the first day?  Especially 4th and 2nd grade.  They didn't wake up extra early, didn't seem to really care what outfits they wore, didn't take extra time on their hair (well, a little extra), they didn't wear brand new, bright, shiny tennis shoes (even though they have them).  I just don't get it.  What's changed?  They were pretty non-chalant.  EXCEPT, they did not eat hardly any breakfast...AHH HA!  I knew they were a little excited, and a little nervous.  Because kids don't pass this up for nothing.....

strawberries and chocolate chip biscuits! 

Looking at this picture of my plastic Wal-Mart bowl reminded me about a review I've been asked to do for CSN Stores.  If you have not seen them all over the blog-o-sphere, they are an online group of over 200 stores!!  A shopper's paradise.  And how I love to shop.  They have EVERYTHING...dinnerware, cookware, housewares, kid's stuff and the list goes on and on.  The picture reminded me that I REALLY need some more attractive dinnerware and more baking items.  I get to choose what item I'm going to review...but the problem so far is making a choice...I want everything!  Check 'em out - what would you choose?!

Anyway, back to breakfast...strawberries and chocolate chip biscuits.  Yum. 

My girls

I can't believe I have a 4th grader...I know we moms say it all the time - but it's so true - THEY GROW UP SOOOO FAST!!!  I hope they have a great day!  Because it's going to be hell getting them out-of-bed tomorrow if they didn't!
