Shoe shopping.....

last time the experience was so bad that it stopped me blogging for 16 months :o but it had to be faced - today was the day we went shoe shopping for Lucy and Izzy's school shoes. I'd been putting it off since the start of the holidays, but in the end it all went very smoothly. We were at John Lewis before they opened, we got our ticket just after 9am and were told to come back in 20 mins, but before the lift had arrived to take us away, the assistant was ready. Less than half an hour later we had shoes! for both girls!! and Lucy had even been able to chose which pair she wanted!!! (sorry about exclamation mark overload) I think it's the first time she's had two pair to chose from sicne she was about 7 (her feet really are awkward).

After that we bought most of the rest of the uniform we needed. We couldn't find a whole tracksuit for Lucy (only tops, no bottoms) but apart from that we're done.

Having been away for so long, there's no way I can show all the LOs I've done since I last blogged, so I'm just going to add odd ones on days I don't have any photos to show. This is a LO I did the other wekeend for the Scrummy Stash Cafe cybercrop (link to the SSC is over there somewhere --------->) it shows Zoe eating Lucy's birthday cake :)
