My BIGGEST Kid of All.......

Tim..... really what can you say...?? Part of the reason I fell in love with him was cause he was just like a big kid always joking, playing around, and having fun. That has since come back to bite me in the butt BIG TIME!!

This weekend was really great with all the kids. Saturday we picked up Rachel and Amberlea and headed to St. Joe for a relaxing day of getting out of town together, some light shopping, and a surprise mini-golf game.

Sunday we slept in, I cooked french toast for breakfast, it was really good. We took our time that afternoon getting ready and headed over to Tim's Dad and Penny's house to see family we haven't seen for a while. After catching up for a bit and the kids playing we headed to a bbq at some friends house. We surprised the girls and didn't tell them there were going to be some inflatables at the bbq. They were very excited about this. Our friends also had a very nice pond that we enjoyed catching some fish in.

There were just 3 other kids plus our 4, so they were having a blast going down the inflatable slide. It was a nonstop rotation of kids from the top to the bottom. Tim included.

It was all great fun, Tim always enjoys any activity that he can join in with his kids. They were flying down the slide, frontwards, backwards, all sorts of ways, even some flips that ended up getting us into some trouble. Here's a few pictures of the fun.






It was all fun until around 10:00 when Tim thought he could do a flip down the slide like the girls were. Nope, not so much...... he said he flipped, but landed on his arm/wrist. He said it popped bad and then went numb. But I'm thinking by the words coming from him, it couldn't of been that numb. Tim was positive he broke it. ER......here we come.
It was a very busy night in the ER. One guy broke his leg from jumping off a roof, to an older man "surfing" behind a 4 wheeler breaking his wrist, to Tim breaking his wrist from flipping on an inflatable slide. *notice it was all MEN in the ER last night doing really stupid things, hmmm....???
The doctor said it was a fracture, same wrist he broke about 4 years back, same hand that has his broken pinky now. It was just a little up from where his last break was. They put a temporary cast on and sent us home, 2 1/2 hrs later. He will go back tomorrow and have a permanent cast put on.
Here's a picture of Tim in his cast this afternoon. (You might notice that his finger still works, ha) I'm not going to hold my breathe that Tim has finally learned his lesson. I seem to think this every time after one of his many injuries, and yet again, he seems to find another way to hurt himself. Kids, I swear.
I am getting some more pictures of our weekend from Gina and hope to post some more soon. Thanks for checking in on us.
