Still have a ton of boxes to go thru but for the most part we're settled in nicely. I do have to open every box and look thru the contents in case anything is broken and need to place a claim w/ in 60 days of delivery so that's taking a while. I did come across a box of Thanksgiving table décor which had a couple of broken items (which upset me greatly because it's my favorite holiday!) and my chocolate fondue ceramic pot was also broken. :-(
The weather has been wonderful. It's nice to have some cooler days on tap. The A/C has been off and the windows have been open for several days now. KJ, of course, is loving the pool and goes swimming every chance she can. God only knows what my electric bill is going to be like heating the pool! She likes her volleyball team very much, likes her school, likes her teachers so that aspect is going great. I attended a meeting on Ed-line (similar to the STI program we had in Alabama but a little more user friendly and ALL of KJ's teachers use the program). After the Ed-line meeting was a PTA meeting and from there we walked our child's schedule and met w/ each teacher. All of KJ's teachers were great and each and everyone of them asked how we were handling the move, how was KJ adjusting at home, etc. One of her math teachers (her algebra class is co-taught which I totally love!) gave me #RollTide as well as one of KJ's PE teachers! Pretty funny!
Had such a fun, relaxing weekend with my family. We drove up to my bro's Saturday morning and met everyone at Mr. B's football game. So exciting to watch him play. It was only their second game of the season and unfortunately they lost but it was still fun. After the game the "girls" went shopping (I promised Sassypants I'd buy her some new earrings for her b-day) and the "guys" went home to watch more football (Alabama vs. Texas A&M, Penn State and then the Ole Miss vs. Texas game).
T had a good weekend, too! She and a bunch of friends drove out to Austin to attend the Ole Miss game. She said it was hot and flat but they had a good time. They spent the first half of the game at one of the Texas fraternity tents and then one of the dad's handling the smoker in the tent gave her and her friend Josh his two tickets so they went into the game for the second half. They made a slight detour on the way home and stopped at LSU and had dinner. She said LSU was not a pretty campus at all but Mike the Tiger being right on campus was pretty cool!
