Hannah is at Youth America camp in Oklahoma this week, so Jordan and I decided it was a good time to start dorm shopping. Bedding was priority 1, so everything would match. We looked all over town yesterday to no avail, but when she talked to her roommate, she was considering a pottery barn set and so we looked there and found one that she fell in love with. It's a very cute Island patchwork quilt set. So we bought it. They were out of twin sizes everywhere and were discontinuing the set to get ready for fall stuff, so we bought a full/queen. Hopefully it will still fit her dorm bed. We will buy the twin sheets separately (i.e. - not pottery barn)

I can't believe how long our list is of stuff we need to buy. Stuff you don't even think about that you just have access to at home. Virtually everything she touches or uses in a day, she needs one of. It is a bit overwhelming. I guess this is just an intro to the college money pit.
