Yesterday was Valentines Day so I shouldn't of been surprised

at the gift of love left outside the door by our cat.

Grizabella (who is currently in heat and awaiting her appointment with the vet) disappeared sometime before school. I was woke from peaceful slumber by Jim calling Grizzy's name over and over. He couldn't find her. I got up to help. To make this story shorter I will just tell you that I went outside to look for her, thinking there was no way she could've gotten out, but she wasn't in the house. I walked around the house to the cat door, that's when I noticed the bird gift and I noticed that the screen was down on the outside vent. (Watch out Horatio Caine there's a new CSI in town) When I looked closer I saw gray cat hair...so I began to call Grizzy's name. Right away I heard a meow and then another and another and then her little gray nose poked through the opening. I was so happy she came to me. I wasn't sure she would because we haven't had her that long and we changed her name and all. I was able to pick her up and take her in the house, where she spent the next 1/2 an hour meowing to go back out!
So after taking Naissa to school, Isaac and I went to the Loper's (which I guess is technically us too but my in-laws still hold the title) My nephews Finn and Reed were over there and Isaac wanted to give them some Valentines. The boys got out the swords and had a blast playing. Isaac wore a ninja turtle mask that I think was made for BIG kids because of where the eye holes are located. But I think he looks cute anyway.

Zack did it again! Today he received his Block T award. This kid just keeps amazing me. And the thing is, it's coming from within him, not from us. He wants to get all A's and learn and do well in school. He is the one that gets upset over a miscellaneous "D" or an "F" because he forgot to put his name on the paper. I am the one who could care less as long as he learns the needed concept. Anyway, here is is with his friend Dylan(who is trying to hide the cookie in his mouth) with their Block T awards! Yes, I am proud.

This picture is on here for a little game I like to call, "What's Wrong With This Picture??"

See if you can see it...

Today/Tonight was the 2nd Drum Show, this time at Clovis North. (side note: They really

need a light rather than a stop sign at Willow and Shepherd) Alta got 3rd and Buchanan got 2nd. Most of my pictures turned out to look a lot like the previous ones so I will spare you the 45 pictures I took.

Well, I'm still sick and I'm really tired so this is the best I've got for now.
