New Family Members of the Feline Kind

On July 6, we went to the local Petco adoption area. We got there early and they only had 2 cats. We adopted both of them. They were being fostered in the same home, so it seemed right.

This is Samantha. We call her Sam. I call her Sammy Girl. She answers to none.

They think Sam is 2-3 years old. She is very sweet but not 100% trusting and relaxed yet. We don't know her history, but she doesn't act like she was mistreated. She is not chunky; she just has a lot of hair. She is a Cymric with a 1/3 tail. When she wags it, it looks like a dogs tail. It is funny.

Sam sleeps under the bed during the day. About 9:00 pm, she comes out and explores the house. She'll come around.

This is Jack:


He was 12 weeks when we got him. He and his sister were dumped at the shelter (she's been adopted). He put on quite a show at the Petco and found himself a home with us within seconds of meeting.

Jack had no problems adjusting. He does have a problem fitting in to places he shouldn't be. That should change as he grows.

The boogie board

I got this for my birthday back in July. It has not touched water yet. Today is the first time I have taken out of the closet. I decided to get a couple good shots of it before we give it its first dip in Galveston on Saturday...

The front


The back, which has a slick bottom. The flash was on, it doesn't really glare like that.

First day of school


Happy first day of school!

The first day of 8th grade was last week. So far, so good. Matt has several honors classes, honors band and is taking Spanish. Can't you just see the excitement in this face?
