Ev has been in the cast for 3 weeks, one day now. Life with the spica cast has been rather uneventful lately ... good thing because life otherwise has been busy busy.
The last week has been full - over the last nine days we have had: seven family members over for the day, dinner for nine, ten house guests, one graduation party for a friend (at our house), one wedding, one date, one flight to Philadelphia, two nights staying with friends there, two pets for Ev to LOVe, one day reuniting with college friends (six adults and six kids age 7 and under), two breakfast sandwiches from the best food truck on Penn's campus, one drive to the beach, and two grandparents *very* happy to see Evie. We will continue this fun until the end of the week. It is great.
My major (Evie) priorities while we are here at the Jersey shore are two-fold. First is to keep Ev cool and comfortable. The gore-tex liner of the cast is basically like having a raincoat wrapped around her skin. Not fun in the sun. The second priority is to take her to the beach without getting any sand in her cast. I cannot imagine how terribly uncomfortable it would be to have even a grain of sand rubbing between her skin and cast. So I want her to able to see the beach and maybe put her hand in the saltwater ... But not go anywhere near the sand. We will see how that goes :)

| Oh the fun. Everyone should have one of these in their backyard. |

| Evie, Tim, and Ava. Ev LOVED Tim and his Greyhound brother Streak. |

| We are getting ready to relax and enjoy being at the shore this weekend! Yay! |
