Church Kitty

Garrett and I practice for Wednesday night band on Tuesday nights.  This past Tuesday night we were out on the porch of the church talking and we heard this sound.  At first we thought it might be a fox pup since there have been several dens near the church over the years.  We started walking towards the road and instead of a fox pup, a little orange kitten popped his head over the curb of the road and started coming towards us.  Of course, being the tender heart I am, I called DeAnne.  I knew it didn't matter what was going on, as soon as I said "we found a kitten", she would be on her way to come get him.  She got to the church and helped us catch him and after a phone call, DeAnne's sister, Sara, decided she had a new cat.

So we're currently cat sitting until Friday when we're going down to Navarre to spend the weekend with Sara, Liam and Mike.  With the holiday Monday and school getting out this week, we figured this would probably be the only real chance that we had to get down to the beach and enjoy it before Harrison arrived.

The school board met yesterday and hired DeAnne back for next year.  We're both pretty excited.  She had a great year this past year and she's really happy at Pleasant Home.  It means she's got a lot of work to do this summer though.  She's actually already started making sub plans for her maternity leave.  She wanted to get a jump on them in case she was hired back.  So she's got that to finish up and there's still some things she wants to get cleaned out in her room.  Hopefully she can get it all prepared before the end of June and be able to relax a bit in July as we get down to the due date.

Have a good weekend and I'll see you Tuesday.
