Shoes for Haiti

Despite the fact that our western world is managing to live in relative tranquility, Haiti continues to face the after-effects of the massive destruction that happened on Jan 12, 2010.  Most of their cities have yet to be re-built.  Many continue to live in make-shift tents, scrounging for food and water, and trying to keep their families safe amongst the rioting.

A local Lynden family volunteers with Mission-Haiti,  a school and orphanage ministry in Tri-Riviere.

  They were able to take several boxes of shoes with them because of your generous donations.

We are blessed with an abundance that we readily take for granted.  "Not knowing what tomorrow will bring" is a cliche saying that we hear but most of us don't really have to live our lives by. Thankfully because of our abundance we can also give abundantly. 

Over the past year, you have brought it in shoes, some by the box full, that we have been able to send to Haiti.  Sole Obsession partnered with many different organizations to make sure that your shoes ended up on the feet of those that needed them.  Thank you for your generous donations!

This year we will be again joining in the effort to bring shoes to Haitian people.  I am thankful for the many Lynden residents who give of their time and money to visit Haiti and take your donations of food, clothes, and shoes along with them. Because of their sacrifice
we are able to again gather shoes for this cause. 

Will you join us?

Throughout February, Sole Obsession Footwear will be
holding our 3rd Annual Shoe Drive.

Check back for more details to come February 1st.


We will be sending the bulk of the shoes we collect through Starfish Ministries, a local ministry that supports orphanages, schools, and churches throughout Haiti.
Currently Starfish Ministry is active in 31 villages throughout Haiti.
Visit their website to learn more about their ministry and how you can support what they do.

We hope to continue our support with Mission-Haiti as the Lord opens those opportunities.  In the meantime you can learn more about their ministry and ways to get involved by visiting their website.

LC Central Office TRIVIA

A few weeks ago I stopped by the central office at Lynden Christian.

This is what happened...

When I walked in all {and I mean ALL}  of the ladies in the office started showing off their 

Sole Obsession shoes.  

It was hilarious and totally cute.  

Each of the ladies that were working that day happened to be wearing the shoes they had 

bought from Sole Obsession.  

The moment was so priceless that we just had to get a picture.  

Thankfully the school photographer was on site and Becky snapped a shot of all of us sporting our awesome shoes.

Thanks ladies for supporting the store and shopping local.

So now for the trivia...

If you can tell me who one of the ladies is in this photo

 (without asking at the Central Office ~ no cheating) 

you can be the proud recipient of $10 Sole Obsession Bucks.  

Redeemable on your next pair of shoes.  

So start guessing and see how well you do.

{Leave your email address in the comment section or email me so I can get your $10 coupon to you!}

*If you are in the picture you can play too.  :)
*First 15 comments win.  Offer ends 1/21/11 so get your comments in soon.

I must give props...

Thanks to all of you for a great final product and, of course, putting up with me and my many go rounds.

What big day happens in January?

Why, Measure Your Feet Day, of course.

What, you haven't heard of Measure Your Feet Day?
Well it is a legit holiday celebrated every January 23rd.  I, for one, think it is a great holiday.
So many people are walking around in shoes that are too small or sometimes too big for their feet.  I harp
on this all the time in the store but feet change all the time. Yearly actually.
With weight gain or loss, age, injury, exercise, etc our feet take the brunt of our life's highs and lows and can impact the structure and stability of our feet.
All this blah, blah, blah means...MEASURE YOUR FEET! It's important.
So stay tuned for our Measure Your Feet Day Event.
Coming January 24th to Sole Obsession Footwear.

Happy New Year

I hope you all enjoyed some time to rest and enjoy family & friends this Christmas season.

I spent some great quality time with my family which was much needed. 

We spent one whole day without even leaving the house.  

Ahhhh!!  My kind of break.

And now it is 2011!

Do you make New Year's Resolutions?

Do you resolve to be a better you each January?

I have to admit that although cognitively I think the whole

 tradition is a bit silly,

I do fall prey to the idealistic concept of trying to set goals at the beginning 

of the year to hopefully become something I am currently not.

So this year I fell victim to the enticing ideal of change yet again and I've joined Weight Watchers. 

New Year's Resolution #1...lose weight.

Hopefully I don't end up the statistic.

Typically a New Year's Resolution starts and ends like this...

I think my New Year's resolution #2 is going to be to keep the 1st one.

Two might be all I can handle this year.

What about you?

Do you have any New Year's resolutions?

Shoe of the Week

I've found someone else that is lost and alone

Will you be the one to take this boot home

She's sassy, she's bold

But for some reason she just hasn't sold

Her friends 37, 38, 39, 41, and 42 have found their place

But this boot remains taking up space

She's looking for friendship, for toes to keep warm

She'll keep you protected while out in a storm
