Cheap Thrill (One Dollar to be Exact)

Dani and I took my dad to the barber to get his hair cut. It's only a ten minute wait but I get bored easily so we visited the dollar store next door. 

As we walked in the front door we discovered a huge display of Dani's favorite thing...Hawaiian leis! We both knew we had struck gold and since you can't find them just anywhere, I grabbed one that was her favorite color and she wore it the rest of the day.  She proudly posed for the camera once we got home.

A dollar well spent!






(In case you're wondering. Her shirt says, "My Brother Belongs in the Zoo."  Since she cannot speak we let her shirts do the talking.)

That's a great photo of Dani! She looks happy, and honestly, I'm thinking I might like one of those, too!

Doesn't take much to please kids sometimes, does it? I love leis too. When I was in Hawaii on mission team the summers of '88 and'89 I had some REAL ones. When they dried I thought I'd keep them forever. I found that dried leis not stored properly just "crumbled"...so I'd go for the artificial ones now too.

Aloha!
