Kitty Cat

This weekend Makenzie attended a Tastefully Simple party at Ms. Linda's house.  Ms. Linda is Makenzie's Sunday school teacher.  She is also my Mother's first cousin.  Early Saturday morning, before Ms. Linda's party that afternoon, Papa told Makenzie that she was going to meet Ms. Linda's husband, Larry.  Papa told her, "When you meet Ms. Linda's husband put your hand out and shake his.  Say 'Hello, nice to meet you.  I'm Makenzie Wood."  Mom had no idea Dad had told Makenzie to do that.  She and Makenzie walked up to Ms. Linda's and Ms. Linda's husband (Larry) answered the door.  Mom said he bent down to greet Makenzie.  She said Makenzie extended out her hand for a hand shake and said "Hi I am Makenzie Wood."  Dad was so shocked she remembered to do it b/c he had told her early that morning.

I remember being young and Dad always told me... "look them in the eye and give him a firm handshake.  Make sure to call them Sir or Ma'am."  That has stuck.  Usually when I shake someones hand, especially a man's, they will say "that's a firm handshake" LOL  I give credit to Dad for that. ; )

Sunday we went to church I was sitting in the pew with Granny when along came a precious little girl with a cat mask on.  She was acting like a cat and saying "meow".  After taking off the mask, we realized it was Makenzie. ; ) lol  Ms. Linda had bought all the children animal masks and Makenzie was the cat, they greeted each Sunday school class.  She loves that mask. After church we headed to Green Turtle with the family to watch the Capitol's game.

Here is Makenzie eating a lemon.

We then headed over to Lowes to order the door for my house.  We also decided to put in another bathroom, so we looked at bathroom supplies as well. After Lowes we were driving home.  It was silent which is not usual.  I turned around to look at Makenzie and this is what I saw...

She had to have that mask on.  Look at those tired eyes.  She wasn't interested in my taking a picture at all.  I had to snap a picture at the first red light though.  It was so cute.  After a few minutes more of driving, I turned around to this...

That cat was tuckered out from a long day.  She also wore this mask to lunch on Monday. ha ha
