My daughter and I set off last kid-full weekend to have a girls only day, while her brothers went off to the Hopkinton Fair with their Dad. It was really nice to have a chance for her and I to connect, have fun and just be silly as mother and daughter!
The place we entered into the Steeplegate Mall was the Food Court, and of course sweet tooth Miss Ki had to show me the candy store, you can buy any mix of candy at about $9.99 per pound; not bad she says, but I didn’t buy that much candy. I did, however, have fun looking around the candy store to see what we see …
Ultimately, when we went out of the mall, I did buy her a couple of treats from this candy store. Next up we headed to the store that she was dead set on visiting within the mall – Hot Topic. Miss Ki ended up with a new band beanie, a tattoo necklace and a set of dangle earrings.
After Hot Topic, we passed a photo booth; confession – I have never taken photos in a photo booth before, so I was jumping for joy at the idea that my daughter would actually do this with me! We spent the $3 to sit in the booth for our photos to be taken, it was rather amusing watching me attempt to figure out the controls, but eventually we got it and this is our results …
Our family motto is; Peace, Love and Happiness, so the photos kind of go along with that, even though that didn’t happen on purpose! We had fun, I really like having this memory with her – smiling and just enjoying our mother daughter time, especially since she is into that teen stage of her world where Mom isn’t always as cool as Mom thinks … at least in her mind.
Next up we hit Spencers and I really wanted this coffee mug shown above, but alas it was like $16?!? This would be the cutest mug for me to have, but I didn’t feed my coffee mug addiction today, instead I bought an adorable magnet …
Overall, I say our visit to Steeplegate Mall in Concord, NH was a blast! It was super nice to connect with my daughter and have this time to just be silly together!
Girl days out are so much fun! Did you eat the crickets?
I need that coffee cup. I love that you teo had a chance to hang out.
