And I had to show off my favorite present I got this year from my hubby. We have both wanted TOMS shoes for a long time and I was the lucky one and got the first pair. For those of you who don't know what TOMS shoes are, it started in 2006 with a guy named Blake Mycoskie who traveled to Argentina and noticed a majority of the children were without shoes. These children were facing diseases contracted from cuts on their feet. While others weren't able to attend school because their parents could not afford shoes as apart of their uniform. So he started making TOMS shoes. Their motto...
"TOMS shoes was founded on a simple premise: With every pair you purchase, TOMS will give a pair of new shoes to a child in need. One for One."
As of April 2010 TOMS shoes has given over 600,000 pairs of shoes to children in Guatemala (one of the largest reasons we love this cause), Ethiopia, Zimbabwe, Rwanda and Haiti. I love these shoes, and I'm so glad Zac bought me a pair for my birthday! Love you baby.
