I went down to the dungeon (the basement) to begin to clear a path and  make room for items which need to be removed from the rental house.

While in the midst of getting  a load of stuff together for the HH to take to the thrift store, I found a Halloween costume/cat hat and put it on Tessa.

She was not amused. 

I was.

Remember the dirt pile from day #141 - Saturday, May 21st?  Well here it is again with a lion, a saber tooth tiger, a triceratops and a pink truck at it’s peak.  We were back at the ball fields for MB’s game this evening.  This time, SD was able to play in the ginormous pile of dirt to her heart;s content.  When we arrived home, she went straight into the bathtub for a hose down.

This was a very hard place for me to take a decent picture. It was crowded, the lighting stank and people kept getting in the way - the nerve! Didn't they know I had to get a picture for my blog for today? Don't they know it's all about me, me, me. me, me? Sheesh, people, get a clue!
