"The fairy tale is all about the shoe at the end..."

I'm a sensible kind of girl.  Every year I take my birthday money and apply it to some bill -- either Nicor or ComEd or use it to buy groceries or fill up my car with gas...well, this year...this year I decided to take my birthday money and spend it.  Tonight I used the birthday cash from my Uncle Butch & Aunt Becky to purchase these dressy black sandals.  While shopping for something spectacular, I re-played many memories involving my uncle and aunt...including the time we went on that roadtrip to Pennsylvania to see Aunt Faye & Uncle Jim and we (the cousins and I) disobeyed and left crayons on the car seat...in the hot sun...  Ummm...several hours later, the crayons had melted and left a mess and we received much-deserved punishment.  Another memory that I have is spending a week with my uncle and aunt and getting to hang-out with my fabulous cousins.

"I like Cinderella, I really do. She has a good work ethic. I appreciate a good, hard-working gal. And she likes shoes. The fairy tale is all about the shoe at the end, and I'm a big shoe girl." ~ Amy Adams
