Little helper

Helping Uma in the garden...

Busy day today - playdate in the am, shopping, and then the Italian Fest for dinner.  The coolest thing happened when my mom and I went shopping today.  We had been shopping for a couple of hours and we were just getting ready to leave the mall, when a security guard approached and us and told us that he had something to tell us.  We both had this shocked, scared look on our face and we turned around to see a crowd of people surrounding us, including photographers, a video camera and a bunch of women throwing confetti and waving balloons.  Apparently today was the grand re-opening of the mall and we were randomly chosen to win a shopping trip.  So they reimbursed us for all of the shopping we had done that day!  It added up to a couple hundred dollars!  How cool is that?!  We didn't even enter a contest or anything - they just found us!  Seriously, I've never won anything in my life, so this is pretty exciting stuff for me!
