Extra Long Sleeping Bag
It's almost camping season and I am so excited. I never thought that I would say that. I used to hate camping, that is until we bought some ATV's. Now I really can tolerate the dirt and roughing it to get my four-wheelin fix.

Living XL is a great company for tall camping gear, such as this extra long sleeping bag that is rated to -5 degrees. It is 44" wide x 86" long. $95.94

Boden's Tall Skirts are my Favorite
After purchasing the large teal applique flower skirt from Boden, I have to say it is now my favorite skirt. I have gone ahead and ordered another fun tall skirt. What I love about this skirt is the way the fabric is a bit stiff, and well made. It has pockets and just fits me really well. I am 6'1" and the long size hit me right at the knee. It is perfect. This time I ordered the tan skirt on the left. I love the large flower appliques - a great proportion for me and the tan color is a nice neutral for just about anything I pair with it. Be sure to check the size chart as it varies a bit from US sizes. $98

How to Appear Shorter
Lately, I have come across many online articles on ways to appear shorter. I personally don't get it. Why not just accentuate the positive? But, for those of you tall people desperate to appear shorter, here are my top 10 humorous suggestions that I found online of ways to make yourself appear shorter. Enjoy!
10. Mix light and dark shades. Pairing a dark shirt with light pants, or vice verse, will shorten your body. Avoid short shorts at all costs!
9. If you wear shirts that have stripes, wear them horizontally. Instead of looking taller, you will look more fat.
8. Kneel and strap your shoes to your knees. It's a bit difficult to walk, but you will definitely look shorter.
7. Have Chuck Norris roundhouse kick your legs. You'll lose like 6 inches off em.
6. Hmmm, maybe try hanging out with pro basketball players, they'll make us look downright petite.
5. You might try looking in a trick mirror, bending your knees, trimming the bottoms of your feet, wearing horizontal striped shirts, or being persistent at sitting down.
4. To appear shorter, lower your pants down your waist so that they appear baggy around your ankles. Wear a long coat and let it hang open so that you seem less vertical. Carry bulky accessories and slouch your shoulders in.
3. A slouched stance will make you look shorter, not to mention insecure.
2. Make your surroundings bigger so you seem smaller. Buy large furniture, tall counter tops, use wide doorways, drive a truck and not a little car.
1. Just sit down.

Funny Tall Story
Today I went grocery shopping. The local store is being remodeled and so some of the isles are pretty tight together. I bribed my two year old with a balloon so he would be good while shopping. When he chose his balloon it was between "Pirates of the Carribbean" or "Barbie". We went with Pirates. Unbeknownest to me, the balloon plays music and plays it loud. As we got to the end of a skinny food isle, right as we were turning the corner the balloon music came on in it's glory. At the same moment, a little old 
woman was also turning the corner. She saw me, in my 6'1" intimidating size and the balloon blaring and she literally jumped a foot. The look on her face was sheer horror. I felt kind of bad, but what do you do? I have been laughing ever since. It's not often you run into a woman as tall as me in my small town and have a balloon blare at you in your face. Poor lady. Are tall women intimidating? Yes, but at times it adds some humor to all of our lives.
Look What I found on Sale at Nordstroms
Nordstoms has beautiful shoes and I love their shoes sales. They carry many women's larger size shoes in all the hottest styles. I found this Pelle Moda 'Fipe' Peep Toe Kitten Heel Pumpin my size. Oh happy day! I love that that it has a slight heel of 1 3/4" which is the perfect height for me. The antiqued crystal buckle gives this suede pump a bit of a dressier touch and brown is one of my favorite colors to wear with many of my suits.

I recommend "The Great Dalmuti" card game for a fun date night!!!
My husband and I had such a great date night this weekend. I love date nights because I just enjoy being with my husband. About every six weeks we have a group date night with 6 couples. Friday night was our "Dal Muti" night. These are some of our funnest dates. We always have a theme potluck and this time it was Mexican food. We had a taco bar, enchiladas, chips and dip, and sopapillas. Yummy! After dinner we play a silly card game called Dal Muti, but we play it with a twist. After each hand of cards, you have to change seats. Your object is to get rid of your cards first, thus you become the Great Dal Muti. We play this game with hilarious wigs and hats. Each time we change seats, we leave our wig or hat on the seat and put on a new one on at our new seat. Yes, it's crazy and we feel like we are all teenagers again, but it is a blast. When we explain to our kids what we do, they are quite perplexed but it is reassuring to them to know that their parents love each other and have fun together. After all, that is probably the best gift we can give our kids - a happy marriage!
