There are so many things that I love about fall. Among them: jackets, scarves, and BOOTS! I’m a pretty tall girl and I have somewhat -eh hem- long feet. I’ve made peace with them long ago, but it doesn’t change the fact that larger shoes can be difficult to find. (in actual stores that is) I’m not a big “shoe girl”, but for years I have planned to allow myself to “invest” in a grand pair of quality boots that I know I will wear for years. Here are some that I particularly love even though most are still far beyond my investment range…
My tastes particularly gravitate toward the Victorian and I really just can’t resist buttons on shoes. What do you think?
And just one non-buttoned beauty
I think my favorites are the second to last pair. I prefer flat shoes and those are just about perfect!

Last night I watched this classic and I am pleased to announce that dear old Charlie Brown has saved the world from the threat of commercialism once again. I love you Charlie Brown! It made me happy, but also a little sad. (as so many Christmas tradition often do) My little brother and I have a long-standing tradition of watching our old favorites every year, but had to forgo the tradition this year as he is serving in Iraq. The good news is this is the last time and he will be home for good in a few months! Last year we were so inspired by our tradition that we tried our hand at our very own stop-motion Christmas special. We spent most of an evening and the following day laboring over our film and ended up with roughly 35 seconds of footage. Stop-motion is not for the impatient! We had to abandon it for the time, but we will resume it one of these days and perhaps it will join the ranks of good ‘ol Charlie Brown.
