Hey, I put some new shoes on and suddenly everything's right

That's right, friends.  My all-time favorite thing:
NEW SHOES!
Thanks, Mom, for instilling your love of shoes in me :)

First up, these beauties.  My new walking shoes: New Balance 850.  What I didn't realize when I ordered them was that they are the "toning" shoes.  So unfortunately, they are not good for long walks.  But I can wear them for our 3, 4, or 5 mile walks.

 Then there are my favorite type of tennis shoes: running shoes!  These are also New Balance 850 but for running.  I am in LOVE.

Both of these shoes are part of the stability line of New Balance.  My feet are not always my best friends and my chiropractor told me about 4 years ago that I have no arches. AWESOME.  So guess what I wear in my running shoes... orthopedic inserts.  Ugh, pain in the butt and not really enjoyable to have to shove into every pair of shoes you own.  NB are about the only shoes that actually support my feet and don't give me horrible shin splints.


I think the girls are excited about Momma's new shoes too because that means lots more walking and running.  They're not always the best running partners, especially when we see squirrels, but they do love it :)
