Cat Scratch Fever

Well, we almost made CC the happiest little girl in the world. (Her first choice was a dog.) Say "Hello" to our furry friend "Tortie." She is the sweetest, most m-e-l-l-o-w cat I have ever been around. On Friday I ended up taking her to the vet, he agreed she was unusually still for a 4 month old kitten, she also had a fever. Leave it to us to get a sick cat for our kids. She is on antibiotics, we are hopimg she will perk up.

We had ourselves a busy weekend. O and CC both had games on Saturday. It was so hot outside that we heated up the ol' hot tub to about 90 degrees and the kids and Bill took a swim. Bill decided to jump in the pool which was a whooping 68 degrees, brrrr. I stayed dry and I got a sunburn. On Sunday we headed to Mt. Baldy recreation area. It only takes about 20 minutes to get to the ski lifts from our house. We took a little hike to a waterfall. (Oh, how I love a good waterfall.) We have yet to go on a hike and not have at least one person in tears. This trail got a little narrow and we had to do a little rock climbing, nothing dangerous but enough for CC to get a little panicky. I guess sometimes you have to challenge your kids, a little. We also took a stroll along a stream and ran into alot of broken beer bottles and graffitti, I guess Inland Empire naturalists are also part time gang-bangers, who knew?
