Weekend and shoes/insoles

So I am happy to report that I have broken in my newest insoles, YEAH!! I wore them all day today and they felt great :)

My mood is also improving and I am really looking forward to this weekend. My sister is flying in tomorrow and staying till Tuesday. We have many plans this weekend it will be busy but I am really looking forward to it. Friday we are attending the Mother's Day Lunch at the girls school, them the girls are hanging with daddy in the afternoon while the girls go out on a mom's day afternoon (mani's and Pedi's along with shopping or a movie). Sat I am walking while Daddy and Aunt Lauren take the girls to Dance class. In the evening we are either doing a family dinner or a date depending on what I am up for. Sunday afternoon we are heading to Grandma Hiedi's for her annual Mother's day party (this I am not to excited about, it is a bunch of her friends along with family drinking to much, Doug having to help BBQ so then this mommy gets to watch her girls around a pool while trying to wait on her mom as well b/c my wonderful step dad doesn't think it is his responcibiblty to help my mom have a good mother's day. But my sis will be there this year to help so it should be more enjoyable)

So I know I have been writing a little here and there about my insloes and shoes over the last couple of weeks. Today when I was picking the girls up from Grandma and Grandpa's I showed my mom my new insoles and releised that I can't really explain in deatils about my shoe/ insole experence without some visual aids so here it goes:

I have gone through 4 pair of shoes, 3 Through Movin shoes that I was never really ahppy with, I found that then times I went back to exchange my shoes I really only tried a couple pairs on and then was never really happy with them once put to the long walk test. I am very happy with the decission to try RR I did their testing and was helped to find the perfect shoes, well accually 2 perfect pairs a pair of Nike and a pair of New Balance, the decission was hard to make I have always had good luck with NB and was shocked that I accually liked a pair of Nikes (I have never found a pair that I liked in the past). I deccided on the Nikes, with the knowledge that if my resoled insoles didn't feel right once they came in I could exchange them for the NB. I am happy with the Nike's so far.

Here they are:

As far as the insoles go I have been in semi custom insoles, custom insoles and now custom insoles that have been resoled. The new ones seem to be breaking in nicely. Here is a picture, yes those are 2 coasters stacked next to them to get an idea of how high my insoles are.
