Value Village Shopping Spree

Chris and I went a little crazy in Value Village yesterday.

My little helper and I had a great time baking and decorating galaxy star sugar cookies and painting the photobooth backdrop. His pride in the projects was so heartwarming, I'm smiling just thinking of it.   We als
