Hi Mom,

Last weekend of freedom before school starts :-(  Megan actually went to school on Friday for Web Leader training - and then she goes on Monday to help with the 6th grader orientation.  First official day of school for both girls is Tuesday.  Here we go!

I'm still recovering from my ribs.  I've been taking it easy most of the week.  I give the last Stroke&Stride a try on Thursday night and then the Intrado 5K Fun Run was on Friday.  Other than that I'm just resting.  I'm still pretty uncomfortable sleeping.

We've watched a few movies recently.  "Barney's Verison" with Paul Giamatti.  Kinda slow but the ending did surprise us.  "Gullivers Travels" with Jack Black.  His normal craziness.

I had two guys quit from my team recently - their last day was Friday.  I'm actively trying to hire their replacements.  It will be tough to be short handed and they were both great guys so hard to lose them.  We had a going away lunch for them at The Cheesecake Factory in Boulder.  The portion sizes there are HUGE!

Theresa is busy at work getting everything ready for Celebration Sunday at church next weekend.  It's interesting to know all the behind the scenes prep work that goes into it.  It's a big deal.  She'll be ready for that to be over.

Chloe went to volleyball camp on Thursday/Friday/Saturday.  She's getting ready to try out for the Boulder High team (on Monday).  She also had a babysitting job on Friday night and she went out to dinner with some friends at the California Pizza Kitchen last night.  Her birthday is coming up next week!  She and Theresa have been planning an informal gathering over here with a few friends - grilling burgers and hotdogs, sleepover in the backyard in tents - should be fun.

Megan and Theresa went down Grandma Shields nursing home on Thursday night for a Luau celebration.

Yesterday was just a few errands (Costco, Tuesday Morning).  Megan spent the afternoon at 29th Street with Clara.  Church today.  and that's about it.

I'm sure there are a million more details.  But I just can't remember them.  It's amazing how a week just slips by and I have a hard time recalling what went on.  Theresa always reminds me after I hit send.

luv u,

Jeff
