I gotta say, I love Christmas clearance sales. Really love them. My aunt and I went nice and early the morning after Christmas and a full cart and lots of hard earned $$ later, I walked out with new storage tubs, wrapping paper, candy, a flannel shirt, mini-dog bones and a handful of other gotta-have-and-can’t-live-without goodies. Woot!

And then today, to avoid ishy traffic and stock up on some of my favorite shirts, I decided to stop by Target on my way home from work. I casually meandered through the woman’s clothes department, pondered getting some skinny jeans, went and picked out some nummy looking bread and then thought, ‘meh – might as well see if they have any Christmas stuff left… I’m already here.’

Oh.boy. Jackpot.

As of tonight, the girls now have holiday PJs and a nice warm winter hat – with ear holes. ha!

Immediately after getting home I got out their new jammies and got them all comfortable and dressed for bed. I’m sure their squeals were those of enjoyment, but I can’t be positive.

Once they both squirmed out of their PJs, I decided to give the hat a whirl. For a little perspective, here are a few shots of the hat keeping my {most favorite lens in the world} warm.

ah!! love.it.lots. Now I’m sure you understand the reason this was an irresistible purchase – it’s tiny, it has ear flaps AND ear holes, and it’s a hat. for a cat.

Doesn’t she look warm and WONDERFUL?

Tara is a bit more feisty, so getting the hat on her and getting photos wasn’t quite so easy. I bet during nap time I could coax her into it. ha! She will probably sleep with one eye open from here on out.

So the moral of this amazing post is that you should always check out the Christmas clearance section because you never know what you’ll find. And Digi – you are my hero for putting up with me and my wardrobe choices.

Night!
