August & Sept 2012

August 2012

And I promise you I promise that
I'll run away with you
I'll run away with you
Spinning on that dizzy edge

Well we finally were able to move back into our house.  Connie and Russ came down and helped to try and restore order from the chaos.  It was nice to sleep in our bed again and Summer and Salem finally got to get back to their routine.

Hawaii was set to play USC for the opening of football 2012.  We lobbied hard to get Courtney and David to visit and go to the game with us and the Browns.  They agreed and made travel plans. They arrived late on Thursday August 30.  In the meanwhile Connie got really sick and had to go to the hospital.  Stuff happens awful fast sometimes.

Court, David and Bridget went to lunch in La Jolla on Friday.  We made plans for the 4 of us to go to the game and then go over to see Connie and Russ after the game.





September 2012

We had lunch in the Founder's Club before the football game.  Nice buffet and relaxed before the game.  USC entered the game as #1 so expectations were high.  On the first play from scrimmage USC scored a 75 yard touchdown.  The rout was on as we won 49-10.  We drove over to our B and B in LaVerne.  Connie looked better but was still sick.









Sunday Christine and Betsy came over and we all got to see each other.  We drove home Sunday afternoon.





Courtney and David left Monday to go back to Dallas.  A quick but awesome visit.

Singing mercy will we overcome this
Oh one by one could we turn it around
Maybe carry on just a little bit longer
And I try to give you what you need

Bridget won tickets to see Dave Matthews Band at Cricket Wireless Amphitheatre.  It was a Friday night so Bridget met me and we drove down to Chula Vista together.  We had seats, not out on the lawn so that was nice.  In concert they are pretty much a jam band.  They had a new album out.  We were more familiar with the older stuff but it was good.
