Everly has her best friend leaving to go back to Mexico.  She wanted to buy her some things.  We went to the mall and went into a store called Icing.  It looked like Claire&#8217;s.  Not sure if you&#8217;re familiar with that but it caters to juvenile girls.  Lots of earrings and shiny stuff. They were getting ready to have a major remodel and were having a HUGE discount on everything there.  50% off everything.  Buy 3 get 3 free.  And the savings were compiled together.  The girls got a LOT of stuff for under $20.
