So- we had a great weekend...not. This last weekend was our annual "Tidwell family reunion" at Bear Lake, and I think it may have been our last. Bad luck seems to follow us up there. We made the drive around 5:30pm and by the time we got there and settled I was ready for bed. So I took Cade and went to bed- around 10:00, Dave showed up to drop Austin off and then headed out for some more fun with the guys....(illegal hunting). About 3 minutes after dave left (he was driving a Rhino....for those of you who don't know what that is, it's an off road go cart/four wheeler thing) I get a call on my cell phone, "honey, get out here, I think I broke my leg!"
Long story short...shorter at least, we ended up at the Logan Regional Hospital via Ambulance.
After many x-rays, no broken bones, after an hour and half of surgery everything turned out as good as it could have. Too many stiches the doctor lost count, and 19 staples on the outside, Doctor says it's just like a deep cut and he'll be back to 100% in 3 weeks....talk about count your blessings!!
We stayed in the hospital for two days and I have to admit, it was kind of a nice break from my kids! Although I have caught some sort of nasty cold...not fun! Espessially when I'm pregnant.
If you ask Dave he will tell you how brave I was on the scene...just kidding. I was a wreck! He keeps telling everyone that I was running in circles...whatever.....
glad your ok babe!! I'll post pics soon...they are pretty bad!
