Updates


We are pretty much settled into our new house. A few odds and ends need to be put into place but everything looks pretty good. I will post pics as soon as I can.

The girls finished their summer by spending a few days with Riss in Oceanside. That was nice for them because we really didn't do much in terms of fun, with the move and all. Charlie and I joined them after a couple of days. We had a good time at the beach.

Sarah started her last year at Our lady of Assumption. I think she has 8th gradeitis. I see her texting and talking and whatever more than anything else lately. Sadie is in 4th grade and she is Vice President of her class, so both girls are in student council. I think she will have a good year with this teacher. I am coaching Sarah's volleyball team again this year. We are 1-1. Sadie is playing tennis again and moved up a level from the Spring season.

Charlie has discovered the computer games. He is obsessed with the Nintendo DS handheld games and the Wii. We literally need to pry them out of his hands. He did take a 4 week swimming class at our association pool once we moved in. He enjoys swimming whenever we can.

Terry and I decided after the last 3 seasons not to pay for the Sunday NFL ticket games. It is expensive and Terry said we watched too much football last year. I miss it b/c Sunday is usually my relaxing day and I like to watch while I am doing laundry. But since our teams are not off to a good start we are less invested now anyway. Terry lost Tom in the first week and Carson is out with his elbow so we have been a little sad. Unfortunately since we live in California the only games we get on network TV are the Raiders. We freakin' hate the Raiders.

This brings me to our latest update. Terry was wondering after Tom's week 1 what it felt like to tear your ACL so he did it in a dirt bike accident a week ago. We went to the Ortho today and he drained 60 cc's of liquid out of his knee. It didn't look good and judging from the noises Terry made I don't think it felt good either. He goes for an MRI next and then we wait and see what those results are before we make any other decisions. Ironically when the Dr. said "torn ACL" he said "he did a Tom Brady". Weird. Maybe that makes me Giselle?
