Geared Up

On Saturday, we went shopping. We bought the cold weather gear. We spent a fortune. All I can say is, I'm glad it's winter here right now so we are getting some use out of the cold weather gear.

I bought:

• puffy down jacket
• ski pants
• polar fleece pants for inside
• merino wool zip up hoodie (WAY cool)
• waterproof/windproof cool jacket
• thermal underwear
• socks
• beanie
• gloves

The boy bought:

• puffy down vest
• base jumping pants (no, I don't know why either)
• polar fleece pants for inside
• thermal underwear
• merino wool zip up hoodie (not as cool as mine)
• waterproof/windproof cool jacket
• goretex jacket
• polar fleece shoes (for inside, they are hideous, he loves them)
• socks
• beanie
• gloves

Notice the boy's list is bigger than mine. And we discovered that they have charged us twice for his puffy vest. But he is so pleased with it he thinks he might just ask for another one anyway.
