Weekend Plans

Do you have weekend plans yet? Nope? Me neither.

With the start of school, this week got a bit crazy for some of us.

Here are a couple of things to keep in mind when you're ready to think about the weekend.

Heather Hill is having a sale!

A blow out sale!

Stop by and stock up on cute kid clothes and accessories.

Remember to swing by the Farmer's Market on Saturday morning.  On Tuesday I picked up three different colors of tomatoes--red, orange, and yellow.  They made a bright and colorful pasta salad.

I'll see you Downtown!

Weekend Plans

School is starting on Monday.  Can you believe it?

It's our last chance to stay up late enjoying the summer evenings.

There's always something going on Downtown, but these two things will help you enjoy the last bits of summer...

Storytime at Books on Broadway

Saturday August 13th 6:00 PM

They'll be reading:
SKYPPYJON JONES--CLASS ACTION
Siamese cat Skippyjon Jones really wants to go to dog school, but his mama won't let him. Inside his closet, he finds himself on the playground of his imagination surrounded by dogs of all kinds. And when a bully sends shiver-itos down the spines of the little yippers, Skippy saves the day and earns the biggest gold star. Full color.

Then grab some gelato at Fratelli's (I hear they've got Extra Rich Dark Chocolate Coverture in the freezer) before heading down to Second Saturdays for music in the park.

Rick Reding and the White River Music Company will be playing some tunes.

Good-bye summer...

I'll see you Downtown!

PS: There are some fun must-have school supplies to be found Downtown, too!  Four Corner's Frame has all kinds of stationery, Amandromeda has vintage clothes for back-to-school clothes, Books on Broadway can order any books you might need to start the semester, Heather Hill Boutique has the perfect hair accessory, and I could go on an on...  Perhaps you'd better just grab a cup of coffee at Pour Jon's and shop for yourself!

Heather Hill Boutique

Did you think Heather Hill Boutique was a shop filled only with fun, frilly dresses for little girls?

It's what I thought until the other day until a friend told me otherwise.  Armed with the new information, I headed down with my kiddos and a friend to see what else Heather Hill Boutique had to offer.

This is what I found:

A beautiful bag made just for grown-up girls!

I want one!  Or two...

Just below the wonderful bags and totes I found this:

A darling apron!  I'm thinking it could make dinner-cooking all the more fun!

I'm so glad my friend Julia set me straight on Heather Hill Boutique.

And in other Heather Hill Boutique news, they will be moving to another location just around the corner from their current location.  They'll pack up all the cute things Saturday night, set them up in what used to be the Baby Habit, and reopen on Tuesday morning at 10am.

Perhaps you should pay them a visit... Mother's Day is almost here!  (Hint, hint...)

And after you've visited Heather Hill Boutique at their new location, head back to their previous location, because rumor has it a shop full of cute things for boys is moving in.
