Arm update - closed reduction on Tuesday

Well, we went to see the orthopedic docs today expecting to come home with a fun new colored cast.  Instead, Kate has an appointment on Tuesday for a closed surgery (no actually incision) but she will be under general anesthesia as they try to bend both bones back into a more normal position.  The the purple and green striped cast for 6 weeks.

So instead of heading on the bus for the first day of school, K has a 6am outpatient appointment up the street.  She is out of PE and soccer for 6-12 weeks, and no violin for 6.  Not quite how we expected the fall to go, but she is taking it very well.  We toured the surgery center today, and that was good to see.  More updates next week!

Orinda Country Cotillion

The Orinda Country  Cotillion  is a forty year community tradition sponsoring a series of seven evening dance classes and welcomes all seventh graders in Orinda.  The boys are girls are both broken into two sections, so every other dance is with the opposite boy group. Two of the dances are themed (a sock hop and country -western) and the rest are semi-formal.  Last night was the first dance in the seven dance series.  Kate and her friend Zoe had a great time.  They learned the fox trot and a line dance.  Seemed like fun!
