OH MY FREAKING SHOOOOOOES!

So today I got home from my doctor's appointment and running to the store to see how much it would cost (too much) to get my ipad's screen replaced after I cracked the corner of it amid my ungainly and rather whale-like flailings to stand up from the couch. And my day immediately brightened beyond all belief. For lo and behold there on the porch was a box. A box from Aunt Reeny who had just sent me a bunch of baby books for William (thank you! They're his first!). This box though... it was aaaaall for me.


SHOES! BWAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I promptly went dancing around the house in them with gleeful abandon until the neighbors probably thought I was crazy or going into labor. Or both. You have to understand. These aren't just any shoes. These are incredibly awesome gorgeous late 18th century reproductions that I have been drooling over for months but just couldn't justify buying yet. And I'm already getting back to work on the entire outfit too with the pockets I talked about last post! So thank you so much Reeny! You have no idea how much this means to me! I'll be dying the shoes eventually too (blue, most likely) so I'll keep everyone updated on that front when I get there!

You drool over a super fancy awesome scrapbooking thingybobber and then have it show up out of the clear blue and try not to geek out. I dare you.

How did Reeny know about the shoes?

I'd entered a contest to win a pair by posting about them here way back when they were doing a prerelease sale and she remembered them!
