game #2

Greenwave lost this week. All 3 teams did. Sad day. BUT Riley did very well in tackles, catches and sacks. (It was 19-13) I know he will have NO problem making JV or possibly Varsity next year. We will have to start saving $ so he can go to the football camp in Oregon this summer. He signed up for basketball tryouts. He may be going for the JV team. He was origioanlly content with Freshman but think he is getting some begging. We will see if he plays basketball as well as he does football. I was mildly surprised as I thought he wasn't going to but track is so far away and he hates to be idle.

Pictures don't want to load for me. I will have to figure some other way to share.

g/c ideas

Okay, for those who have asked...

Gift card ideas for Cameron... grocery stores in walking distance-Target, Winn Dixie, Publix.
Fast food near by that has vegetarian options.... Taco Bell, Burger King, Subway.
Nice Restaurants... PF Changs and Chipolte.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For Riley...

Jack in Box, McDonalds, Arby's, Dairy Queen, Taco Bell, Burger King, KFC/LJS, Pizza Hut, Subway, Sonic. Goodness anywhere. lol Those are the local options. There are more in Reno as well.

Cameron

Okay, Cam originally gave me the wrong address to his dorm room. The street address is 1055 NOT 1500. Sure glad I found out in time. I mailed a 30 pound box of food to him yesterday. Yes, it would of been more economical to send him a g/c or cash but he would of spend the money on stuff he didn't need but wanted. This way I KNOW he has food. Yes, he is still a vegetarian. What did I send? Cashews, granola bars (no almonds), cereal bars, Cinnamon Life, Frosted Flakes, Microwave popcorn, oreos, veg ramen, veg cup of noodles, japanese noodle bowls, fried rice, mac & cheese, poptarts, Ritz, cheese-its, a few bags of chips ( to fill the top of the box up so nothing moved around), spagetti-o's, peanut butter, jelly, mini donut, cheese raviollis, a few other veg "lunches" and a 6 pack of reese's pb cups. No meat, not heavy and requires no refrig is a tricky combination. He is on the cafeteria plan BUT he doesn't have class every day and he has to take a bus to the cafe and that gets old if you don't feel like leaving the dorm. This should last him the month and then he has to shop on his own. lol Okay, I may send him another around Thanksgiving.

up, up, away

Balloons were out in full force this weekend in Reno! Didn't get there early enough to glow, but still they were AWESOME! Anyone want to take me on a balloon ride?

Okay, pictures to be added later, Blogger is having issues.

Captain

Ri made football captain. Mama is proud. Here is a snap shot of their game yesterday. sun was way too bright to take pictures. I had to correct the exposure on this. Ri is 42, you can't see his number but if you look at the arms, you can see thin Nike sweatbands above his elbows. :) He plays all but a few plays. He is beat up today, but he loves it!

last for now

settling

We are settleing in. We are poorer than poor. Not sure we could get any poorer without living in a box or back of our pick up. Sad. Anyways, Chris is working at Lowe's pt in Fernley and I got hired at a pizza place pt. I start next week for training and then the store opens on the 15th. Still another week til Chris gets a partial paycheck. Big sigh...what doesn't kill us, right?

Enough of Woe is us...

Riley has his first football game tonight against Sparks High. He is excited. I am nervous. I always get nervous. He is just as popular as ever.

Grif enjoys school again. He is so happy we moved back.

Jack is a terror. Age 2 is such a fun age. {NOT!}

Okay, gonna post random pictures. I will post when I can. Without internet at home it is hard.
