Reused Clothes

I remember the time that we went to the mall together (Brenda, Bret, and their cousin Kira), got matching outfits and headed to the Picture Place to get a group picture. That is still my favorite picture of those girls. They were so young. For a couple years after that the girls would say, "Remember when we went to the mall and got an outfit, that one time?" What a treat that was. I am not sure that we have been back to the mall since then for clothes. Sometimes Wal-Mart, Target, or Old Navy, but never the mall. The girls now get so excited when someone we know gives us a bag or two of clothes to look over. It is like a fashion extravaganza for them.


A friend gave us two big black garbage bags of clothes sized from 6 to 12. What a treat this was today. Marley and Bret spend hours going over the loot. Bret said of the girl whose clothes she inherited, "B has a sweet deal on clothes, doesn't she?"
