WARNING!!!..Not for the faint of heart!!!!!

Ok...this post has not been easy for me to do cause I can hardly look at the pictures so you have had fair warning. Saturday Clint decided to cut down a limb from one of Grandmas tree to get her some firewood and some smaller branches for a bonfire for the kids. Well....the huge branch he was cutting came towards him when he thought it would go the other way. He threw the chainsaw and tried to get out of the way but the tree hit him on the way down. He was on a 10 foot ladder by the way so not too easy to get out of the way. It hit him straight in the face and then that far of a fall was not too easy on him either. Luckily Laena, our niece, Thersas daughter, who is also an ER nurse, had just gotten there 10 min earlier. Amber Heather and I were at a baptism. We got a call from Laena saying she was on her way to the ER with Clint. We were on our way home so we just followed them there. Laena was great to have around and she stayed and helped us all the way through. Clint was very grateful to her and was thankful she was a nurse. She is a very good nurse and we are proud of her. Ok...so her goes the pictures....

Clint got 30 stichtes all together...25 on the outside and 5 on the inside. It took an hour to stitch up but the doctor did a great job...he will still have a scar but hopefully not too bad..he is not excited to have a scar...the kids think its cool...



October stuff

Since October is gone...which I am in complete denial....I better hurry and get this post done. I didnt take pictures during Halloween at all but we had a great time. WE had Trunk or Treat at the church Saturday which was real fun and then we went o Thatchers haunted house and had a great time there. It is so great to have such fabulous friends!! Then Sunday night we hung out with the Romriells and had a big bonfire..which in an understatement..it was huge...we burned a whole tree at once..It was really a fun time and hopfully you can see from the pictures..I only had my cell phone. Life is good and we are gearing up for the holiday season!!

Thanks to Jamie for taking Corey to the pumkin patch.(also thanks Jamie for the great picture..I stole them:) He loves Jake and is always saying he is his best friend. They are great pals and are going to have such a great adventure in life together..I just hope the parents can keep up!!!!!
