I'VE DONE SOME SHOPPING!

I haven't bought much this year, and truth be told I haven't really wanted to buy anything. C and I have been working really hard on saving our money so we can hopefully start the process of purchasing 20 acres next year.

I decided enough was enough, and I got the itch. I've been in some what of a winter funk lately and decided a few spring purchases would cheer me right up and guess what? They did!

My purchases:
A cute yellow, very spring dress





I love it's simplicity and that I can play up with some cute jewelry, but what you don't see is that in the back it has a crisscross strap



I am in dire need of new flats and found these ones to be perfect!



I love the ruffle!


Heading more into summer gear, I bought myself a new swim suit. I'm sort of in between sizes right now, So I have 2 swim suits that are a bit snug and 1 swimsuit that's falling off. While I hope by the summer I can fit into my snug ones, I needed one to get by with for the next few months.




And last but not least, moving in the opposite direction, I caved and bought myself a pair of Ugg boots.



I've never been one to pop down more then $100 for shoes, and especially for boots that I will only wear so often. But this year I absolutely wanted a pair of these in the frigid temperatures but could not bring myself to pay $198.00. Cue Ebay. I've been on the look out for a brand new pair, brown, tall boots for under $100.00
Ridiculous? yes. Impossible, no! I had my eye on this pair for the last 5 days, starting bid .99 I knew they would go up, so I set my max at $100.00 and didn't even think about it until yesterday. I saw another pair ended just hours before at 137.00. Still not bad but more then I wanted to spend. I sort of lost hope until I got the email. I won! $91.99 and $11.00 for shipping.


And so my friends, that concludes my shopping. I can't wait for everything to arrive in the mail!



Now I'm off to fix sparky and I dinner, and play a little wii!

ONE WINTER DAY...

I live in up state Oregon. We get rain. A lot of rain..I'm talking at least 5 days out of the week Fall through Spring rain.

I love the rain. I love green grass, green trees. I love the smell, and the freshness in the air.


I also sort of love the rain attire. They have the cutest rain boots now days, and of course this season, being my first winter up here I had to spluge and buy some!


Purchased at target

I've always wanted a pair, just for pure cuteness but never needed them in California.


Now...you know what I hate about the rain?

The fact that when I walk our dog to the field to use the restroom I have to watch every single place I step because of the invasion of slugs. There are seriously thousands of them. GROSS!


And that folks, is reason enough to buy rainboots :)
