Yesterday, we went to Market Day downtown, which is something new our town has. Although it was small and there were few vendors, I really enjoyed it. I only spent $10 and I scored homemade lavender granola w/ coconut (sooooo good!!!), fresh baked Organic garlic bread, Organic arugula, and and a homemade strawberry muffin. There were also fresh cut flowers, hand-made soaps, and other food.
Later I went to Target where I totally humiliated myself. I made a quick trip to the bathroom when we were donwe shopping, and when I was walking out of the store, I heard someone yelling, "Hey lady! Lady!" and I turned around to see this man running after me. He pointed to my backside, not quite knowing what to say to me, so I checked with my hand to see what was wrong, and I realized I had tucked my skirt almost completely into my underwear and was sporting my blue Vickies to the world. How could I NOT have felt the breeze??? I've never been so embarrassed. I wonder how many other people saw and didn't tell me?
In Olivia news, she has learned to say "hot dog" among her other words. This child is such a talker!! Makes her English teacher mother proud! She's also had a quie a growth spurt. I had to buy her new shoes, so I got these.

I really like Striderite shoes for the support they offer, but I stil like Robeez too. They are so cute!
Olivia has a new obsession with "gasses" (glasses), although as I menioned in my last entry, she thinks gassing is funny too and purposely pushes out gas and then laughs and shouts "toots!" Anyway, she's been wearing glasses all the time. We had to poke the lenses out so she can see where she's going.

Well, we're off to go suit shopping. James has some interviews coming up and wants a new suit. More about that later, but it looks as if our money is not going to be so tight anymore. Keep us in your prayers. We really need better insurance.
I'll leave you with this. What do you think it is?

I sent it to my friend as a joke. It's my dad's freckled fingers, but it looks like a flabby cellulite butt!! HAHA!
Those shoes are adorable! What style are they - I assume they have a name. Where did you find them?
