A little something for mommy...

Tonight was the Grand Opening for a Harvey's store**(see bottom of post) in Chino Hills...and I decided to pack up the kids and go for it!!

We had to wait in line, but it was worth it!! We even met some of the Harvey Family, their girls were playing with Freddie and making him laugh!!



Can you believe it, Freddie has been upgraded..he outgrew the carrier so now he and Karyl have matching seats (well, they are slightly different colors). He looks so big!!
We really do have the cutest kids...they were so good waiting in line. The photographer for the company took pics of them too...said they were the cutest kids there =) Maybe they'll be on the website!!
This was my loot...a little something for mommy. And when I say a little something, that's exactly what it was. I already have the purse...and I had a gift card from work that needed to be used, so I got the wallet that matches my purse.
I know, I know, this is SOOOO unlike me, "What, Diana caring that things match, especially a wallet and a purse"
I know, it's weird....I am starting to want to be more girly, and this seemed like an appropriate way to start. Besides these are practical too...they stay nice, will last forever (made of seatbelts, remember) and I got all black...that never goes out of style!! I like to think that it's basic and plain, but classic....kinda like me....
**For those of you who don't know what Harvey's is, they make the Original Seatbelt Bags (usually you see purses). I have a black one that I got for Christmas last year (thank you Greg!!).

I love Harvey seatbelt bags! I have 3 of them! Small red, medium pink and a large navy blue! Marc made me promise that I would use the navy one for at least 4 years (he bought it for me for Valentines day) before I bought another purse - ya know cause they are kind of pricey! But they hold up so well and I always get compliments on it!

I wish I could have gone to the store opening!

I wanted to go but baby made it impossible. I have small purse and larger purse a wallet and the executive tote that i use as my diaper bag! I LOVE HARVEYS!!!

Amy, my hubby was like yours...he got me the large black one for Christmas and since they last forever I think he expects me to use it for that long!!

Claire...I understand, it's tough when they are litte...just wait until he gets bigger and going out will be easier. Let me know if you ever want to go to one of the stores, I'd love to go with you!! I love these bags...I saw that they had actual diaper bags too, but I don't know if I can build up a good enough reason to spend $250 on a bag that's going to be abused like a redneck stepchild!!
