Easter Shopping

Saturday we did get quite a bit accomplished and I was thrilled that it didn’t take long. We bought Ashley her Easter dress and shoes.

Normally we start out at Kohl’s looking at dresses. Then, we move on to Target, and later, Dillard’s. Saturday we made things easy for ourselves and went directly to the store we knew we would end up in: Macy’s.

Sure enough, Ashley picked out the dress she wanted immediately. She tried it on, it fit perfectly, and we paid, and were on our way to the Shoe Carnival.

Once again, we saved time by going directly to the shoe store where we always end up anyway. They have such a large selection; they are hard to ignore. Ashley can wear a size three in kids or a six in women’s. I don’t know how that works, but for her it just does.

She wasn’t very thrilled with the children’s choices (of course), so she chose a pair of strappy heels in silver. Meanwhile, I was also searching for a new pair of shoes. After trying on many pairs which were either too loose or too tight, Ashley suggested I try on the same shoes she was getting. I chose a pair in black and was actually surprised at how much I liked them.

We both wore them yesterday to church. I felt very self conscious the entire time, not because they showed my toes, but because they have a two-inch heel. I hadn’t worn heels – any form of heels – in probably 15 years, so this was all new to me.

As soon as Ashley could walk, she was wearing her dress-up heels around the house and was much better at it than I ever was!

I made it through okay. Here we are:

CUte shoes! I can do a heel, but only an inch or so, and only if wide on the bottom for stability. Wedges suit me best. Mostly, though...I am a clunky gal. LOL
