Shopping, St. Arnold's, and Milkshakes...Oh my!

Saturday our small group at church got together and had a fun filled day. The guys went to St. Arnold's to do their tasting while the girls went shopping at the new outlet mall in Cypress.

Here's a picture of the crazy bunch.

Thanks to Claire we girls were able to dodge some of the traffic getting to the mall by taking a side street that took us along the back side of the mall past all the traffic exiting the highway (thank you, Claire, you're a lifesaver). The Lord knew we needed a little break getting there because the true test would be finding a parking space. Thanks to my old college days where I gained a ton of experience hunting people down on the way to their car we were successful fairly quickly and with only a few minor winces from the backseat. I'm telling you, the outlet mall was so busy that you would have thought Miley Cyrus was making an appearance at Old Navy.

The guys had wings from Wings & Things that were wonderful. While at St. Arnold's Mike insulted the owner by comparing him to Dirk Nowitzki who is on the Dallas Mavericks which gave everyone a big laugh. The owner didn't take too kindly to the comparison so it sounds.

Crazy Teresa...

After a day filled with shopping and St. Arnold's tasting we decided we needed a little fuel so we went to Niko Niko's for some yummy Greek food. For some reason or another Mike looks as if he's contemplating whether it was the chicken or the egg that came first with his very serious look. I guess great minds never stop thinking.

Who can be so close to Katz's and not go for a cheesecake milkshake. Oh, sinful calorie, fat laden strawberry milkshake...why do you tempt me with your sweet strawberryness? Thank goodness there were three of us that shared because it is way too rich for one person to tackle alone.
