and yes, those are pink! We wanted total pink shoes, but they were out of our size :(
And then there is this:
And finally this:
We are up to our ears in school and practice schedules. Between all 3 playing soccer, we are at the fields 4 nights a week and then games on Saturdays and Sundays - and some of those may be out of town. Last weekend, we were in a jamboree and played 4 games on Sunday afternoon! I sure was ready for a bath and bed by the time we got home. I did learn one thing though - umbrellas aren't just for when it's raining - they're great for shade while sitting through numerous games on a hot day!
And then we also have Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts for the kids and of course, my Junior Service League meetings.
We've also had a new addition to our family - meet Sonny...
Long story short - my oldest had fallen in love with a cat that was through the Humane's Society - they were outside Kroger one Saturday morning - I waited to long to call about adopting the cat (2 days!) and he had already been adopted. My son was heartbroken. I put out feelers to some friends about the specifics we wanted in a cat - not a kitten, orange, fixed preferably, etc. One friend is a vet and the very next day called that someone had brought in a cat matching my criteria that they could not keep. They had actually rescued the cat themselves - it had gotten dropped off on the local college campus. I'm sure whoever dropped the cat off figured some college student would pick up the cat and take care of it. So, we adopted the cat. And my child used all of the remainder of his birthday money to pay the adoption fee! That is a huge thing if you knew my child and how he feels about his money. So, Sonny became ours the Wednesday before Labor Day weekend. We want him to be an inside/outside cat. The vet told us to keep him in for about 2 weeks to make sure he knew we were his family so that once he got outside he'd want to come back. We haven't let him out yet. The kids are so afraid he will 1)run away 2)get run over or 3) get eaten by a dog. Any suggestions about how to do this?
