Before Yans got her ears pierced, we had breakfast at Starbucks...
And then we went shopping for a new pair of shoes, because her old pair of shoes looked like this...
And after she got her ears pierced (yesterday's post) we drove over to Grants Pass and got popcorn at Blind George's.
One bag for us to share, and another bag for a homeless guy we saw sleeping on the sidewalk nearby. (Annie was pretty excited at the thought of him waking up to find his surprise.)
And then we went junk store shopping...
I swear, that last shot wasn't staged...I was looking at something nearby and when I walked over to the next booth, I found her sitting just like that.
And then we went to Circle J for lunch...
Yans loves it because she can ask for a peanut butter sandwich (no jelly) on a croissant and I love it because they make the best fish tacos in the whole-wide-world.
Annie also loves it because the whole bathroom is a chalkboard...
Those were my fish tacos.
And that's the fruit roll-up that came along with Annie's sandwich.
And then we hit a few more junk shops before making our way back home.
I had a great day with you Yans - thanks.
Wish I was 'yours'....what an absolutely wonderful day. Annie is a lucky one...Karen is a lucky one...we are lucky ones to have your posts. Thank you!

I was there! And I did go into one store with booths of junk, but I don't think it was that one.
But I really wish I'd been able to have the fish tacos!
It looks like you had a very good day!

She is growing up so fast. I will never forget looking out my side window one afternoon and watching you photograph her on a blanket when she was a baby. (before I knew you were a photographer!) The play yard next door has been quiet ever since you moved. Coley was the greatest conversationalist!
And I agree, Circle J is the BEST!!

I love, love, love this post! I took my folks to Circle J (and I had the fish tacos....gosh I'm hungry now), we also went to Blind George's (best caramel corn I've ever eaten....and I've eaten quite a bit), and the junk shop.....it was one of my faves of the entire trip! In fact, I just unpacked the pretty pink doily I bought from there this morning! :) Miss you, miss your family, miss Oregon and miss my Hometown peeps!
