Other Happenings

Aside from the excitement of going to the Cowboy game on Sunday, there have been other things happening. Kelsie went to her grandmother's house in Waco on Saturday after her Upward game. Since we were going to be gone all day Sunday at the game, she took the opportunity to spend some time with Wayne's mom and aunt. So, Kelsie played her first basketball game of the season on Saturday morning (this is her 3rd year and Wayne's 3rd year as assistant coach). She has been blessed because she has had the same coaches for the last 3 seasons so she has been able to build up her skill from one year to the next and really learn about basketball. They keep score at this age and her team won 26 to 6. They played great as a team, passing and getting the ball to everyone. After the game, we drove to Hillsboro to meet Wayne's mom and aunt and did a little shopping at the Nike outlet there. Monday afternoon we picked Kelsie up and drove home in time for practice and rushed home to eat dinner and get into bed for school the next day. Kelsie went back to school on Tuesday. It was a nice long break, which we were thankful for, but it was really weird having the pressure of it being a "school night."

Tuesday was a good day until Kelsie cut her finger while cutting carrots (with the new knives I got for Christmas) for the salad. It was bleeding so badly we decided to take a trip to Care Now and see what they could do. No stitches were needed, just a little glue and tape as we called it. They got her bandaged up and on some antibiotics since it was a cut on the hand. She is doing fine, just tender today. We go back on Friday to check out the progress.

Raider had his doc appt today for his rabies shot and some other shots he needed. He did great and now weighs 6.2 pounds. The doc thinks he will be around 8 when he stops growing. He has lost some teeth and still has a few more to lose. Now that he has had a rabies shot, he can go to the groomer and his first visit will be on Friday - that should be interesting.

Hope you are having a good week. More to come.
