What a Life!

The Boucek girls are having the best weekend ever.

Friday after camp, K headed to the farm for a visit with her Dad. He got back a week later than expected and she's coming home a day earler than anticipated, but she is over the moon anyways (which isn't hard to imagine since she's been bouncing off the walls all week).

To add icing on the cake, Daddy and R had a special surprise for her when she got there . . . a pony! . . . . yes, a p-o-n-y. I can't wait to see pictures and K is delighted to have someone her size to play with. A dog may be man's best friend, but I think pony trumps dog for a six year old girl.

I got back earlier than expected from the drop off and somehow scored an extra ticket to the Trace Atkins/Toby Keith concert at the Amphitheater last night. Being raised a country girl, I can't think of a better way to spend the night than having two sexy cowboys sing to me. If there had been a tractor or a cow, I may have fainted dead away.

Everything comes with a price though and I was hating life at 6:00 this morning when my alarm went off to remind me to throw a lawn chair in the car and head to the rec center to wait in line with all the other crazy mamas to register K for the after school program at her elementary school for the fall. It was all worth it when, three hours later, we were signed on the dotted line. The things we do for our children.

The icing on my cake was getting to know the three other moms next to me in line. Following a page from Julie's book I got all their names and I'm sure we'll be Facebook friends before the weekend is out. Cool moms are hard to find, so I've learned to grab em when I see em.
