So, even though it is about 75 degrees here in Sunny SoCal, I have my jeans and KNEE HIGH BROWN "Born" BOOTS on because I am getting ready to jump on an airplane and fly to NORTHERN NORTHERN NORTHERN California to visit my BFFFE, Renee Michele Johnson, and her husband Pat and daughter BaileyMarie! CAN YOU TELL I'M EXCITED?!?!?!?!?! (I am also currently sweating....it's too hot for jeans AND boots, people!....but it's raining in ETNA....i've gotta be prepared!)
I am so excited to have these boots on for a couple of reasons:
1. Whenever I put these boots on, I am reminded of when and why I purchased them (remember, all shoes have a story, my friends). I got them right before I went to the Stagecoach Country Music Festival last year, and boy, did these shoes see some fun! I stood on top of walls and rocked out to Toby Keith, danced to the music of Sugarland, and ate copius amounts of corn on the cob. It was my birthday, we played a zillion games of kickball, drank a lot of BudLight...it was overall a GREAT time.
2. I am wearing these boots because I am going to one of the most beautiful locations (in my humble opinion) in the state of California---the Scott Valley---and in the Scott Valley, there are cowboys. We're talking REAL MEN here, people. Not the fake Cowboys like at Stagecoach, but the legit, rodeo bull riding, cow wrangling, rifle shooting, rope swinging kind of Cowboys. It's my kind of party. :) Nothing like good looking men who aren't afraid to get their hands dirty. Sorry my Southern California Men, you are amazing, but I must admit that there is nothing hotter than a man on a horse :) And I am wearing the right boots for the occasion!
3. These boots ARE SO COMFORTABLE! I love them. They look good over jeans, they look good with shorts, they look good with dresses. They are so versatile and that is what I love the most about them. Seriously awesome. AND I bought them at Marshalls for what I'm sure was about 1/2 the price of what they normally are! SPECTACULAR!
On a sidenote, I am not sure if I am going to be blogging....Etna tends to be a "Black Hole" into which I get sucked and I usually forget whatever is going on in the outside world. I DID end up bringing along shoes to blog about, so hopefully I will be able to do that and keep up with my plan! We'll see!
Have a happy Spring Break, all my teacher friends!
