Leanne, you can keep your rain for a few more days. it's hot as hades here today again, but we have an open trench for the power cable to be laid, so it can rain next Tuesday LOL.

LP, not sure about taking the older girls. They will be in school soon so you would be able to go without them anyway. With the shoes, I always tend to buy the better quality ones as 1 they last longer and 2 they are so much better for their feet. Our kids all have terribly wide feet with high insteps, so finding good shoes is a big enough task as it is, but we don't want to ruin their feet with bad shoes. I would buy the more exxie ones just so you don't have to replace them sooner.

ETA *snap* Katie. Logan is a good little boy for going to sleep easy for you this morning.
