Those of you who have known me for a while know that I love me some rain gear. I was even known as “the yellow boot girl” in high school. That is not really an experience that I want to relive (nothing like high school public humiliation). However, I still have my knee-high bright yellow boots and will wear them again one day.
Apparently, I still have this desire to dress for the rainy days. Samantha received a cute lady bug raincoat for Christmas last year from her Nana. (I would link to the picture, but since we switched sites, I have no idea where our pictures are.) It was an 18 month size and she has really worn it. It’s been a great coat, well made, and cute to boot. Sadly, it has gotten a little small. She can still wear it (at 27 months), but I know it won’t last much longer.
Recently, Nana told me that the new rain coats had just been delivered at Sam’s, where the old one came from! I finally got a chance to run some much needed errands yesterday. Sam’s was one of my stops, so I had to check out the new rain gear. I found this cute green coat and the frog boots came from Target.
Of course, I had to let her try them on when I got home. She can’t stop talking about the boots and goes to her closet to pull them out every chance she gets. I hope she has many happy rainy day memories.
She’s a real clothes horse, huh? How on earth did that happen to you, who really never enjoyed clothes that much?
I have someone’s calf-length yellow rainboots here. Are they yours?
So… this must be why the RSS feed quit working a while back.
Wow, has it been that long since you checked?! Sorry about that.
I don’t go to the interwebs unless the RSS reader tells me to do so. I’m a simple woman.
I think even my parents remember Janie’s yellow rain boots from one time when she wore them to a calculus study session during senior year of high school. They’re really quite famous.
Speaking of study sessions – it’s too bad we don’t have them anymore. They always involved milkshakes. Somebody come up with something we can study, quick!!
