Back to School Shopping

We knew Ledger would need a bunch of new clothes and stuff for the upcoming school year, we decided to get ahead of it and start the school shopping early.  We made the plan to go shopping in Holland, so we headed up there. Whenever we go out shopping, Diana and Ledger's favorite part is usually the part where we go out to eat! We were driving by Russ', which caught Ledger's eye, and he got really excited about going there for lunch on our way to shopping. I honestly have no idea why Ledger likes that place so much... For those who don't know about Russ', It's a local chain that's really popular with Dutch people over the age of 70. And Ledger, apparently. 
It was always my grandma's favorite restaurant, but she always pronounced the name wrong. The place is called Russ'. Please note the apostrophe, there by stating that the name is supposed to mean that someone named Russ is the owner and it belongs to him. When speaking, it correctly would be pronounced 'Russes', so show ownership. My grandma didn't seem to understand that and would always call it 'Russ'. She would say 'Lets go eat at Russ'. This delighted me to no end!
Anyway, after a delicious meal, we made our way to a couple stores and got the boy a bunch of shirts, shorts, and pants. We just need one more trip out this summer to get notebooks, folders, etc. and we will be done with his back to school shopping!
