AMEN! I tromped through the park this morning in over a foot of snow, stomping in 6 inch deep slush puddles for good measure. You just have to have boots! Not only to they make winter/spring here livable, they make it fun!

wow. Rainboots don't cut it here for the cold, but we do NOT get slush like that. That is pretty cool! Uh, I see you already came and left Utah? Sorry...

Holy Cow Kathryn! You weren't kidding!! Do they make them for kids :)

Emily - Snowboarding socks + wellies = toasty warm. Oh - & I obviously owe you an email.

Tara - Of course they do! Buy Ellie a pair in pink!

wow! good investment for sure... that would be really miserable without wellies.

My wellies arrived not a moment too soon. I have worn them every day this week.

it hurts me to look at these. wet cold and i do not go together. however, i do like your boots. if i were there, i'd buy a pair.

p.s. inadvertent rhyming! i love when that happens.
