In The Bag: A MyBrownBaby Spring Break
Mari and Lila are hanging with their Papa Jimmy (my Dad) for Spring Break this week, and of course, we had to pack some old stand-bys for their trip to Virginia: Their American Girl “Addy” dolls; Crayolas and notebooks; their iPod shuffles; their favorite DVDs (this week, “The Game Plan,” and “Akeelah & The Bee” are making a strong showing); and, of course, their Dominoes set. But I added a few new things to their suitcases, because what girl goes on vacation without something special and new in her bag?
Check out Lila and Mari’s Spring Break swag:
Clockwise: The Great Word Race ups the spelling skills, but in a super fun way that even the 6-year-old can get into ($25 Fatbrain Toys); Lila will pay homage to the Easter bunny in this vintage brown bunny tee ($16, Mini Boden); and how fly will Mari look cozying into this polka dot terry jacket? ($38, Mini Boden); Derrick Barnes’ Ruby and the Booker Boys series is a huge hit around these parts, and “The Slumber Party Payback” will be perfect for curling up with before the girls get tucked in ($5, Amazon); What? Should I get to look cute too? This is my new, adorable large leather tote ($130, Banana Republic), and; I’m tempted to keep these bad boys for myself; alas, they only fit Mari’s perfect moon-pie face ($26, Boden (yup, I’m kind of addicted)).
You gotta love a mom who hooks her kids up with Spring Break Swag. Too cute.

Is this a surprise addition for them. They are going to be jumping up and down for joy when they open their bags! What an awesome thing to do for them Denene.
Those are some awesome items!
Looks like they are gonna have a blast!
Miss J is sharing in the Spring Break fun by spending her off week here on campus with me. How is this fun for a child, lol. Enter: Student Parent Center, computer games, and friends.
Happy Spring Break and mommie and daddy break as well =)
