Annie made her theatrical debut in the school musical last night. It was a fun show called "Friday Night Fever." She played Mrs. Koonsman, the high school chess club sponsor.
I wish I had a picture to post here because the dress she was wearing looked a whole lot like our family room couch. The outfit was completed with panty hose and a pair of black shoes. But the pictures are stuck in Annie's camera and I can't find the cord to connect it to my computer.
Anyway, back to the outfit. The school provided the dress; we had to provide the hose and the shoes. Last Wednesday night, I was at a work event late when I got a text message from Annie.
Annie: Mom, I HAVE to have old lady shoes for rehearsal tomorrow.
Me: Sorry. Goodwill will be closed by the time I get home. Just tell them we'll have them in time for the play.
Annie: Ok.
Five minutes later, my phone buzzed again with another text message.
Annie: Mom, I went in your closet and found the perfect shoes.
Me: You did?
Annie: Yes, they are black with a small heel and a buckle.
Me: Those are NOT old lady shoes -- I JUST BOUGHT those shoes!
Guess who is shopping for new black shoes this weekend?

I literally laughed out loud when I read that you own old lady shoes!!
Now go buy some sexy stilettos!
LOL I knew it was coming....
When I was 15 my mom used to love these black shoes with a square toe and a square buckle right on top. They were her favorites. I called them her pilgrim shoes.
I am happy to say that my mom doesn't wear pilgrim shoes anymore, and that her shoe collection makes me jealous.
I think this has less to do with the fact that she is making better fashion choices, and more to do with the fact that I am getting older. ;)
Too funny. Someone just recently made fun of a pair of my sandals and called them "old lady."
Have fun shoe shopping:) Take pics and post what you end up buying... a before and after!
HAHAHAHAHA. Daughters...
Ouch. Sometimes, you just wanna pull a kid's hair, don't you? :>)
