It was this old-fashioned/nostalgic themed thing, with quill pens and romantic type jewelry.

My mom always had to order a size larger when we were in our fast growing years, knowing that by the time it arrived, we'd be in the next size. We lived in Japan so shopping in the Japanese stores for clothes wasn't an option. We were "big" Americans, not petite Japanese (yeah, I was 4'4" and 63 lbs in 6th grade ... huge, right?)SouthLakesMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08822510653198676631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4923368625647031806.post-45694411711126084092012-08-03T10:30:09.515-05:002012-08-03T10:30:09.515-05:00Mom and I just caught up with your week.

I grew up in Chicago so shopping in a store was not a problem....but something about a catalog made it more fun.

Now we have the internet where my child likes to create "wish lists". <br /><br />Do I ever order from catalogs though? Yeah, sometimes but it's usually like this....I get my catalog of choice (used to be VS but now its some cheaper version!), browse through the cute clothes and then move to the internet and place my order that way! lol<br /><br />Thanks for the memory reminder! :o)Kimmyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02487298990901843807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4923368625647031806.post-8159763026451009602012-08-02T10:45:41.885-05:002012-08-02T10:45:41.885-05:00Yes...remember doing the same thing, Debbie.

My mother ordered our school and church clothes and when the packages came, we were beyond thrilled. I also got lots of hand me downs being the second girl in the family. Sometimes, I got tired of wearing her clothes....but not now! I love wearing her clothes now! :)<br /><br />We shopped the catalog because I'm sure my mother wasn't taking six kids to any store!!!!
