Did I Mention that I Grew Up in Santaquin?

So, I got my mission call to Poland(!!!). It's cold there, so my mom told me to look at Cabela's for "Long Underwear to wear over [my] garments." And I found a brand new Prettiest of Pretties! Behold, my heritage
The last time I owned boots I was 10, they were pink, and everyone else in my class had owned them for years.

Now I want these turquoise ones or maybe these:



Plus also, embroidery!

Unfortunately my clothing budget is allocated for my mission and I don't think cowboy boots are mission-approved.

They're so pretty!!!

(In other news, I can buy silk thermals. Silk. You can wear silk camping. What?)
