i'm very sorry i didn't blog yesterday. in fact, i had every intention to, but, was busy putting humpty dumpty back together again

yesterday bobbi, dallas and i went mtn biking. (1:20 pm) 50 ft before we were done with the trail dallas missed a hairpin turn and tumbled over the trail into some oak brush and conveniently scraped his arm on an extremely rusty pole. we wouldn't have really worried about the situation but it had been over 10 years since his last tetanus shot. here is dallas getting his tetanus shot. (2:45 pm) just so you know, he's current on his vaccinations now
here is dallas drinking his $204 sprite after almost passing out from getting 6 stitches in his arm. both the nurse and PA said it is very common for this to happen to men. (weenies!) :)

when we get home (3:06pm) we get to clean up the kitchen floor from the 1/2 gallon of oj that fell out of the refrigerator when dallas opened the door. it needed scrubbed anyway.

"stitches" and i decided to continue on with evening plans and go to parties (6:00 pm) that each of our teams were having. at the tough girl going away party for janis, tough boy "stitches" decided that he needed to enter the, "drag race a kiddie bicycle towing a crate of bricks up and down the street" contest. (9:00 pm) at the end he forgot he was on a kiddie bike,
distributed his weight too far back and fell.here is dallas in a different ER (11:00 pm) awaiting the return of the doctor to put 3 staples in his head. notice his left arm wrapped up. medical staff assisting him thought it was pretty funny that he had just caught up on his shots 6 hours earlier.
i on the other hand, did not

on a positive note, we're now a little closer to meeting our deductible. crashing should become a little cheaper until we start all over again in january
