Back in the Saddle

Our Von Maur store re-opened on Thursday, just two weeks after a tragic shooting rampage. As loyal Von Maur customers, Benjamin and I went to the store to participate in the opening morning. I was happy to see the store jam-packed with customers. People were shopping, and they were happy. There were some bitter-sweet moments - store associates hugging customers - but I think everyone here is happy that we can all move on. Benjamin brought a bouquet of flowers tied with a snowflake, which he gave to the associates in children's shoes.

Of course, no trip to Von Maur is complete unless you make a purchase. I finally was able to replace my original Ugg Boots with a new pair of chocolate brown classic tall Uggs.

Yay! For those of you last minute suzy's who are looking for a new pair of Uggs, and who have small feet, check out the children's shoe department. Mine are a girls size 5! I am thinking I might have to get a pair of the crocheted ones as well, since they are sooo cute!
