Kilpatrick's Dinner

Had a great evening of food and fun at the Kilpatrick's place! The whole family had a great time. What a lovely family. And, I've found a new CR buddy!!!

Lunch with Damico's

After our Furniture Outlet experience this morning, we jumped to the north side and had lunch/mall with the Damico's. A little time at Dicks's and the playground - of coarse - was the main event. The girls went shopping somewhere.

Marvin Ridge HS wins!

MRHS Football takes an easy win. Shaw's had a great time!

All off to school

Kid's first day of school - August 25, 2009.

Dad's fractured Tibia

Ok, so I had a mild pain in the back of my left knee. I'm sure it was from the fall in May when I twisted my ankle. Oh, I didn't mention that here? Well, it wasn't fun. I had stumbled down some stairs and twisted my left ankle really good. I had actually contemplated getting an ambulance. However, my pride is much stronger than that, or stupidity. Not sure which one it is. :) Long story short, I had a walking brace around the ankle for about a month.

Anyhow, back to recent knee pain. It would only hurt after some normal walking. But taking long strides didn't hurt at all. Now my medical wisdom was stretched to the end and I had to make an appointment. My physician couldn’t pin point it, but rationalized that it might be the cartilage; compressed or torn to some degree. So he ordered and MRI. No stranger to MRI’s, I planned for ear plugs and a nap. The MRI tuned up a factor on the tibia. Nice. So far it is healing great. I’ve got another appointment next month to review. We shall see how this goes.

Playing on turn 1 of the racetrack, a few lights on. Up and down side of the track. Kicking balls and letting glow sticks slide down. Los of kids. I hear a skateboard now. Oh, it wasn't a skateboard. It is a r/c truck. :) Austin is scooting up and down the track on his butt. Is that a bicycle I see? Yes.
