You are so right about boys. My boys are only 10 and 7 and sneakers are pretty much the most expensive thing they ask for (with the exception of a $150 baseball bat that my oldest had to have-it's justified though. He's a darn good player plus he got a president's award for outstanding academic achievement for 4th grade) Anyway, school shopping is the best with boys. We can go to Old Navy and clothe them for really cheap!!!!
Now being partial to boys cause we have them, I do have to admit that I don't think it's fair that the girl's parents have to pay MOST of the wedding. Nowadays, these kids want the most extravagant weddings where it's sometimes $75/plate. Times that by 150 people (which is conservative)and that's BIG BUCKS! My dad did pay for our wedding, however, he gave us a limit on the total of people. I paid for my own wedding gown & the limo. My father-in-law actually paid for the rehearsal dinner and the flowers. I think when our boys get married, we will definitly be more generous and offer to pay for some things to make it fair.
I look at my aunt who has 3 girls. 1 is done college and the other two are in it now. Then she has 3 weddings to pay for?????? THey will be in debt FOREVER!!!!
