Is this real life??

Look at me doing two blog posts in one week! This is just going to be a quick one, but I couldn't not post about this. As I have been shopping to replace my wardrobe, I have signed up to be on a lot of stores' email lists. I usually just glance through these emails and delete them, but every now and again there are some deals that are just too good to pass up.  That happened this week when I received an email from the Gap Outlet saying that they had jeans on sale for $19.99. Let me start out by saying that I am cheap, so I have never owned a pair of Gap jeans in my life. I refuse to pay $60 for a pair of jeans, but $19.99 I can do. The closest Gap Outlet to us is in Nashville and we were actually already going there this weekend to see family that was in town from Michigan. I saw the discounted jeans as soon as I walked in and grabbed a 6 which is what I have been in for a while now. Some of my 6's are getting just a tad loose, so out of sheer curiosity I grabbed a 4 as well. When I grab two sizes I always try on the bigger ones first so that if they fit I don't have to get depressed when I try on the smaller ones. I tried on the 6's and they were a bit roomy for skinny jeans. So I felt sure that I was setting myself up for a let down but I decided to try on the 4's. I still can't believe it but I am telling you, they fit! I haven't danced around like that in a dressing room in I don't know how long, but I was excited! I still am excited! I am aware that every store is different, and that just because I fit in a 4 at one store does not mean that I am a size 4 now. Gap could just run their jeans big. I am perfectly content being a size 6. The thing that I am so excited about is that a 4 is a size that I NEVER thought was possible for me! Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would ever own a pair of size 4 anything! I realize that this is not nearly as exciting for anyone but myself, but I just had to share my excitement with you guys. No dream is too big, and if you work hard enough you can far surpass your expectations! I hope that you are having a wonderful weekend!
