Gift for me. (tee hee!)

PhotoStory Friday
Hosted by Cecily and Honey Mommy






Deck the halls with forts and clutter.
Fa-la-la-la-la. La, la, la, la.

Tis the season to drive nuts the muh'der.

Fa-la-la-la-la. La, la, la, la.

Mommy needs a special treat.

Fa-la-la-la-la-la. La, la, la.

Red and festive for her feet.

Fa-la-la-la-la. La, la, la, la.



Disclaimer: Yes, we are still totally Advent Conspiracing. This is really not a Christmas gift for myself. It is the 4th pair of shoes I've bought online this fall and the only pair I haven't returned. I think I've paid more in shipping for returning shoes, than the shoes actually cost. ;)

I haven't bought new shoes for work in about 5 years. I've always wanted red Mary-Jane style shoes. Everyone tells me to try out Danskos. Problem? The price tags. But when I found some red Mary-Jane Danskos for $40, I bit the bullet and ordered them. Aren't they cute!?

If enough people sign up through my link at ShopAtHome.com, I can even get a portion of my purchase price back. If you want a super cheap pair of Danskos, sign up at ShopAtHome.com through that link (that links it back to me!), then search for "6pm.com". You can look at all of their shoes, but the Danskos were particularly great deals.

Let me know if you sign up. I'd sure appreciate it. Since I rarely/never get gifts from students and my co-workers decided to be gift-free this year (after I've already made them things!), I'd happily consider this my Christmas gift. :)

$40 is a steal for shoes! (I think). And the red is really cute!

Chris said...

I applaud your shoes AND your ability to write a catchy jingle. :)

Are you a woman?...

No wonder you are addicted to shoes!!

Gledwood said...

They are v nice, by the way.

I found your blog by accident... pressed Next Blog twice and here you are. So I thought I'd say hi before I vanished forever...

Have a merry one!!

I LOVE those shoes! So cute!

Your jingle is the story of my life! Lol! Did you write that for me?? As I speak, my little guy is making a mammoth fort that I can't even climb over to get to the kitchen. It has two blankets, gobs of hot wheels, towers of blocks and...need I go on?

Cool shoes, too. :)

Kat said...

Glad you found some shoes you love. Shoes make me happy too. :)

That's a lot of cute!!!
I am so not an on-line shopper, (the shipping costs are brutal in Canada.)
OTherwise I'd be all over it.

Very cute shoes! I see you are a shoe girl!

Heidi said...

Well Merry Christmas to you! I think they are adorable, and I am so jealous of your very clean kitchen.
I will have to go check out your site, but give me till tomorrow night. I have a serious weakness for shoes!

Jen said...

I like those. And yes, mommy totally does need a treat.

Super Cute!! I just recently bit the bullet and bought my first pair of Dansko's. They really are awesome, aren't they?? Love them!!

I'm going to the link now!! Thank you so much for the heads up!!

Also, did you put up the fake tree again this year?? Mrs. Myers has a dish soap out that smells like pine. It really does make it feel like Christmas - in a nice way!! Just thought I would give you a heads up!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Angela said...
