So we went on a shoe hunt!

Yesterday Ana arrived at home with only one shoe. The other one is usually able to be found under one of the other seats in the bus but this time it was gone. This is not the first time. She threw her shoe with the insert (orthodics) out the bus window about 3 months ago. I went on a hunt down International and FOUND IT!!!! The second time we did not even try....but the third time we are a bit exasperated. We do not have new orthopedics yet, so we bought some expensive good running shoes for her. Her feet are very low tone and desperately need support. Well, she threw it out again...I can't even imagine how she manages to get the shoe out of the small, high window in her bus....

So we went on a shoe hunt. The bus driver was very kind and tried to write down all of his stops and turns. There are about 30. However, he was not totally clear on about 5 turns and so our try to follow the stops and turns was a total fail.

We also had all three kids in the back and Ana started crying her heart out after about 30 minutes of searching. Caleb was upset because he wanted to play ipad but the battery was empty and Lydia was crying because our DVD player had no sound. All three were definitely hungry and it was hot....

Really! Is looking for one half of a $70,- pair of shoes worth all of this.....

I don't think so. (We did end up having to buy another pair.....)

We ended up eating at a Taqueria somewhere on Foothill Blvd (not so safe area). And I have to say, we found our next favorite Mexican place. The food was awesome...and that is not just because we were all hungry. ...
