Today was a busy day for us, considering it was a 'vacation' day. We started this morning by dropping Sam off for what was a shearing to say the least. Poor guy, he was excited to go and definitely seemed pretty excited when we got home, but he looks really silly! By 10:30 we were all at Avatar for a haircut, 1PM Gymnastics camp, by 5PM we were at Pike Middle School picking up Bailey's schedule for school, 6PM pick up 'naked' Sam and by 630 home for drive-thru dinner. By 7PM I was ready to call it a night! That is when I heard it, the chiming song of an ice-cream truck. Ice cream trucks don't come to our neighborhood, we are lucky the mailman delivers here! I stepped outside to see if my ears were deceiving me and that is when I saw it. Not an ordinary ice cream truck, an ice cream truck that serves soft serve ice cream, dipped cones and shakes. An Adkins nightmare on wheels. I looked across the lawn and Bailey is walking in a slow trance toward the street. She is obviously as amazed as I was, it was like the Pied Piper, I wondered what would happen when she got the truck and realized she had no money. She came back to the house and asked if maybe he was lost. Lost or not, everyone in the neighborhood was out on the street getting their sweet treats! With that kind of welcoming I imagine he will be back again soon, too bad for my hips!
