What Happens when Ashlyn and Mommy Mow the Lawn?

Zane got our lawn mower out and got ready to mow when Ashlyn and I decided we wanted to do a few strips of grass before he started.  We really enjoyed it and ended up doing the whole lawn while Zane used the weed eater, but we had one little casualty:

Before you get all worked up, let me tell you that the mower didn't get anywhere near her toes.  Her shoe just slipped off as we were backing up with the mower and she didn't say anything until we ran it over.  When she saw her shoe fly out she immediately began sobbing, "My croc!!!!"  These are her absolute favorite shoes, we've had them for over a year, and she wears them EVERY DAY!  Zane consoled her and told her we'd leave tonight to go get her some new pink crocs and when Zane told her to just throw away her ruined ones, she insisted on saving the one good one because it wasn't broken.

Her eyes lit up when we replaced them tonight:

Well, at least our lawn looks great now, Ashlyn has some new shoes, and luckily it wasn't my flip flops I was wearing that got ruined.  I just might have cried worse than Ashlyn did...it's hard for a girl to have to say goodbye to her favorite shoes!!
