Happy 4th of July!! We hope everyone had a safe and happy holiday and are enjoying an extra day off. Dan and I biked over to our friends, Donna and Craig, for a BBQ yesterday. Cat joined us for a bit and then went to her friends, Donovan, Grandmothers house and enjoyed fireworks at the beach. She drove Cat home afterwards so that she wouldn't have to drive with the crazies. She lives on 9th street across from the beach so Cat has enjoyed spending time with them and not having to worry about a parking spot. Very nice people! Donovan goes to Cats school and will be a sophomore this year.
Speaking of driving ... We would be remiss to not mark the historical event of Cats first fender bender ... July 4, 2010. It was very minor .. No one was hurt AND she was in the TBird NOT the Acura :). All in all it could have been a much more eventful day. She handled it well and got all of the pertinent information. The other car wasn't scratched and we just have to replace a front turn signal cover.
Dan and I have been enjoying riding our bikes on all of our errands ... Home Depot, commissary and down to the beach. Its been a lot of fun. We were riding before work until my tail bone was so bruised that I could barely sit at work!! I really couldn't sit without my entire staff hearing me cry. So, Dan had to ride by himself for a week and after I got a new bike seat. Its amazing how much you use your tail bone. If the new seat doesn't work I am contemplating how to attach one of those doughnut seats to my bike seat. The gentleman at the bike store said he deals a lot with men/womens rear end "issues" so I am thinking that this might be a new invention :)
Well, its time to go enjoy the pool with lots of sun block on. Until the next time we send our best wishes to you and your family!
Dan, Heidi and Cat
PS - I am now preparing to send this from my cell phone while we drive to Portsmouth Naval Hospital .. Caitlyn either twisted or broke her "right" ankle. I emphasized the right ankle because she won't be able to drive if its either of those. Hmnnmm seems that the man upstairs has his own way of disciplining for not paying attention at the wheel! Dan and I figure that getting out of the hospital any earlier of 12midnight will be a bonus. Well keep our fingers crossed for overreaction and that her ankle is fine.
