The School Supply Shop

Yesterday was the day.  I was a little worried that we had waited too long and that the things we needed would be gone, but we did okay.  We did have to get the Lone Star Baby the paper pronged folders (just sounds dirty, doesn't it?) instead of the plastic pronged folders the school prefers because the plastic ones were out of the required colors, and I also bought a generic version of the requested brand of scissors, but I think we otherwise represented our family well in this endeavor.

Lone Star Pa and I took the Lone Star Baby's list with us when we did the grocery shopping at H-E-B and got most of it.  Then the Lone Star Girl and I took it with us to Target and got her stuff plus most of the bit of the Lone Star Baby's list that we could not find at H-E-B.  Then we went to Office Depot for jump drives (both) and liquid paper (Girl).

Now we only have some special art supplies left to get for the Lone Star Girl and we will be finished.  The Girl claims she is done with clothes as well, but I probably need to inventory what still fits the Lone Star Baby and take a look at their shoes.

Have you done the dreaded back to school shopping yet?  How was it?
