New Member of the Family

After being on the waiting list for adoption for two years............(drum roll please) ......... we are still waiting. But look at the cute kitten we adopted Tuesday. His name is Max and we (the kids and I) love him. I'm not sure what Steve thinks.

The kids are back in school and enjoying it. Max keeps me company while they are gone.

(In case you didn't know, kittens are hard to get good pics of unless they are sleeping. )

Bear Lake Reunion

We were able to go to Idaho for our Waite family reunion. It was so much fun. We left Tuesday, went to Lagoon Wednesday and were at the Blue House that night. Katie rode all the scary rollercoasters and loved it. (That's my girl) And Nathan had fun on the kiddie rides. Although when he got splashed on Rattle Snake Rapids, he looked at us like "why did you let that happen?" We got off the ride and he promptly tried to strip down.
Being at the Lake without Nathan's track was a whole new experience. Not having to worry about him drowning if the water touched his neck was a big plus. He had so much fun. Chad rented jet skiis on Friday and it was awesome. I took Katie out on one and she asked how long I've been riding them. She had fun. She was singing, laughing or screaming the whole time. Steve took Nathan. Steve said he smiled and waved everytime he saw me and Katie riding around.
Back to real life. School starts next week. Is anyone else excited?
