"Barefoot Week" Photo Challenge

For those of you that know me, you know I'm not a huge fan of feet. Feet are stinky. And kind of ugly.

Unless..UNLESS!...they're baby feet. Baby feet don't stink. And they are VERY cute. Verrry.
So of course when I read that this week's photo challenge at i heart faces was "Barefoot Week", I just knew I had to post my girls' feet. I can't resist taking pictures of my girls' feet. So yummy!


This is daughter #1, reaching for something on the table. I had high hopes of her being a ballerina with those strong toes. But alas, she's a clutz. Just like me. *sigh*



I believe this was taken when I first started doing piggy tails in her hair. They're crooked and funky, but who's looking at the piggy tails when you can look at those FEET! Arrgh! And her tushy is cute in those overalls.

Emily discovered an old guitar in the closet and she has claimed it as her own. She strums it every once in a while. I caught her listening to herself strum. Excuse me while I wipe the kisses off the computer screen...

Daughter #2: In her great-great grandfather's baby gown. *droooool*


See, she was a chunky baby! LOVE the chunk, love the toes! LOooOOVe!

So it's a good thing that this week we can post more than one photo. It's a non-competition week. I would have REALLY had a hard time deciding which pic to post. I have SO many more. But what is so special about the theme this week is it is to raise awareness for Soles 4 Souls.

Soles4Souls is a Nashville-based charity that collects shoes from the warehouses of footwear companies and the closets of people like you. The charity distributes these shoes free of charge to people in need, regardless of race, religion, class, or any other criteria. Since 2005, Soles4Souls has given away over 7 million pairs of new and gently worn shoes (currently donating one pair every 9 seconds.) The shoes have been distributed to people in over 125 countries, including Kenya, Thailand, Nepal and the United States. Soles4Souls has been featured in Runner's World, Ladies’ Home Journal, National Geographic’s Green Guide, and The New York Times. It has appeared on CBS, ABC, NBC, FOX, BBC, CNN and thousands of regional news outlets across North America. Soles4Souls is a 501(c)(3) recognized by the IRS and donating parties are eligible for tax advantages. Anyone can join our cause, and we need your help.
