Shoes and Umbrellas

Nate needed new shoes.  His feet grow so fast these days.  I had promised him I'd take him shoe shopping a few weekends back, but the weekend went by too fast, and on Monday morning, Nate cried as he had to put on his too small shoes again.  So when he came home from school, I told him we were going shoe shopping.  Of course, I had a few kids that insisted on tagging along with us.  I ended up coming out of the store with umbrellas for all the younger kids and shoes for Nate, Aaron, Savannah, Sara, Kate and Owen.  It was a little more than the one pair of shoes that I had intended to buy, but I had some really happy kids because of it.
