New Socks and Shoes

Going to church is always an adventure. Don't get me wrong. I love attending my church meetings. I am lifted up as I study the word of God and fellowship with my brothers and sisters in the gospel. However, I have moments where my mind wanders or I may get distracted by something else in my life. Well this is one of those moments from today. I got some new socks and shoes a couple weeks ago and today is the first day I wore them to church. Aren't they cute?! Don't pay attention to the bright white stumps sticking out of the socks. I don't know who those belong to. I just looked at those legs again and I am embarrassed for that person.

So the shoes are J-41s which are some of my favorite comfort shoes. Last weekend I went shoe shopping with two of my sisters, Heidi and Leslie, and we all bought some of these and some mules as well. Yippee! This is the first time that we have all fit and liked the same pair of shoes.

After returning home, Heidi emailed my sister Bonnie to show her the shoes that we all bought. Not much later, Bonnie called and said she had bought the same shoes a couple weeks ago. You do not understand how amazing this is! It is not amazing that Bonnie had bought shoes, she owns more shoes than the rest of us combined. But we all picked out the same shoes for the first time ever!

Yes, we are all sisters. We were all products of the same gene soup, but we are VERY unique women. It is so much fun to get together and learn from one another, but I digress! Don't you love my new shoes?
