Thanks to an invitation from one of my oldest and best blog friends,
Sara, the kids and I joined a few of
my other favorite bloggers at the Lincoln Park tween boutique
Frankie's on the Park. We headed upstairs to the Graffiti Bar, where you can page through binders of graphic transfers and have them applied to a tee shirt or hat.
We'd brought our own tees, $2 tank tops from Old Navy for the girls and an old ringer tee of Josh's, and the girls picked their own designs.
Notice anything different about Z's ears?
A chose a cupcake and I added the number 3 to her back since she's almost 3 years old. Her collection of cupcake tee shirts is now at three.
Check out the big-eyed shy face she's giving the employees
Z picked a retro-ish dog and the number 5 after lingering over a glittery penguin and some cheese-ball dolphins.
After she'd warmed up a bit, A checked out her new tee in the mirror and hung out with Carrie's daughter, whom she'd met at the farmers market a couple of weeks ago.
We couldn't find the perfect design for Josh, so the girls decided to have "DADDY" emblazoned in 70s-style letters on the front.

Great to meet you today at #Frankiesevent. I knew I had seen those two beautiful girls before and when you told me your blog, I knew exactly who you were.
My little Monkey put a tennis ball on his tshirt and then ended up putting a starfish on the back, and things on the sleeves. I think he made the tshirt ladies insane.
The store is very very cool. I will definitely review it as well. Great pics-

Nice post, thanks! I'm glad you guys had fun. You're a nicer wife than I, as I forgot to bring a shirt for my huz. Oy... see you soon!
I'm digging that Graffiti Bar! I'm thinking about going back to make tee-shirts for my nephews who 1) have everything and 2) live in a two-bedroom apartment in Manhattan. A's cupcake shirt may have been the cutest of the day.
Aw, lookit Pebbles. She's happy cause she's doing her favorite thing: eating candy.
I am so sorry I missed that event. It sounds like it was so much fun.
