I took the boys shoe shopping last weekend. Not surprisingly, their tastes are completely different.
We first looked at The Children's Place where Owen picked out a pair of black tennis shoes with guitars on them. Not to be outdone, Jared chose the same pair. While they looked adorable on 7-year-old feet...somehow they weren't right for an almost-10-year-old. So we only bought one pair.
Next stop...Journey's. I love this store. It's where I found my awesome PINK PLAID tennis shoes. Owen chose his pair in about 4 seconds. Fortunately, they had his size in stock. The little hipster is happy as a clam.
They're laced shoes, but he's able to slide into them without tying everytime. :) I will add that it took me 30 minutes and no less than 75 attempts to get the lacing "just right" on these babies.
Jared wandered the store for a good 20 minutes before he decided on a pair. I kept telling him that we could look other places, but he finally chose. Grandpa will be so excited...
They're low tops - and look so cute!!!
I've never considered myself a shoe fanatic. But, in addition to the PINK PLAID tennis shoes above, I've also managed to buy myself a new pair of PINK sandals and a pair of PINK flip flops this year! I don't think I've bought myself 3 pairs of shoes in one season...ever! :)
