my lower half kept going numb, both on the planes and in the car. We did stay in Boise until Sunday, hanging out with more family and a couple friends.
We went to dinner with some friends we hadn't seen in a while and toured their family's ranch on fore-wheelers. At one point, I got off the fore-wheeler so Anton could go off jumps and do donuts and stuff. He was having so much fun! And then he did a donut too tight and flipped the fore-wheeler over. It was so cool to watch--he was like a ninja, rolling in the air as he flew off, just barely escaping being trapped under the fore-wheeler (which is about twice the size of the one we have at home).
I was so sure the fore-wheeler had nabbed his ankle, but when I got to him he was totally fine. Then he got back on to do more. :-)
Anyway, we adopted a baby kitty from the pet shelter. He's so cute and little. I wanted to keep him mostly outside but Anton will only agree to a pet if we keep him inside. City boys.
I was reading this article about happiness and it mentioned pets promoting emotional well-being and that people who have pets are usually happier. So, I decided Anton could use some emotional well-being and a little more happiness, even if it's in the shape of a little ball of fur with claws. This semester's been pretty tough on him.
We've both been smiling a lot more since we brought the little rascal home. :-)
Bringing him home from the shelter
He likes to play behind the computer.
Then he cuddles after he plays.
Does he have a name yet? :) He's cute!
ReplyDeleteAnton named him Vasya.
