Dog Days of Summer

Summer is just flying by.  This past weekend was the tax free holiday for back to school shoppers.   I avoided it.   Today I did a little bit of shopping.   I went to JC Penney and bought my grandson Anthony two pairs of school uniform shorts.  I didn't buy Gabby anything because now that she's thinking like a teenager I know whatever I bought she wouldn't like.  (most likely)......  She would need to pick out her own clothing.  

I am accepted into the Gecko Fest which will be in Gulfport, Florida on September 3, 2011.
They are having a ball which will be held at the Gulfport Casino  (which is a ballroom)  and the theme is  "The Lizard of Oz".    Funny!    I have made some clay geckos,  an iguana,
and some toad/lizard houses for the event.  

Today I purchased a new pair of Birkenstocks for myself.  This is a major purchase as you probably know how much those cost!   They feel great,  however and I will probably wear them for years to come.  

Robbie will be going back to Gainesville later this week to return for his senior year of college.   It will not be the same around the house without him.   Cooper will miss him greatly,  too.   I offered to help him move.   I do have a "mom's mini van" after all.
