Don't Know Where My Shoe Is

Last night we took the Westergreens and AC's friend Josh to the Whitehaven Rugby match against Barrow. It was a big televised game - all were encouraged to wear pink as they were raising money for the breast cancer suite at the local hospital. The team had a special pink rugby top for the occasion. The community was real involved providing dancing and bands and little league rugby during half time. It was great fun especially when Whitehaven shut them down 28-4.
After awhile of sitting with the family Nathan asked if he could go watch his buddies play their halftime little league match up close. He never came back and we could see him across the field chasing his friends. At the end of the game, he came back to us but only wearing one shoe. He said he didn't know where his other shoe was. We were baffled - how do you lose your shoe and not know that? We all tried hunting for it but to no avail. Nathan had paid for part of the shoes as they were more money than I was willing to pay for shoes. Now he will have to buy a whole new pair himself. I'm still baffled.
