Hayden's Baby

Stupid Kid...

Well lets start off by saying Hayden went to his follow up appointment for his shoulder day before yesterday.....

Doc: did you do something to your shoulder?

Hayden: No, not really, why?

Doc: well in the last x-ray the bones were touching and now they are completely separated...possibly with a muscle in between.

Hayden: Well, I was skiing....??? I did fall down a couple times but did not do anything to my shoulder....

Doc: Well you must have done something to it because it looks alot different now then it did a few weeks ago. We will give it another month to see if things go back where they should be but if not you will probably need surgery.

soo.....Cut to yesterday

Hayden: Mom, I'm going to UofA to compete in Rail-jam

oh, and there are way more snowboarders so I'm doin' it on ski's

then i got this text today.....

hummm Ya, that looks real safe!?!?

this is the only trophy he came home with....
oh and most likely, more so now, a scar to come from shoulder surgery

Wisdom teeth...

Hayden had his wisdom teeth out today at 7:45

was out of the doc's office by 8:30

was on his way up to the mountain at 10:00

he is one dedicated, hard working kid....

anyone who employs him is lucky to have him!

They put him in charge of the DC Snowboard Competition next weekend and he is working his butt off to make it GREAT! It was just given to him a week ago to take over and he has already lined up sponsors and organized a ton of stuff!

back to the teeth.....

he told me yesterday to cancel his appt because he was too busy to have any down time

i told him....ahhh NO! gotta get done while you have insurance!

Do you remember when you had yours out?

When I had mine out it was painful and I didn't want to get off the couch for like 3 days...

then I got dry socket which was worse then having the teeth out by 10fold!

when Brittnee had hers out she was sick to her stomach and was in agony any time i went over a bump in the road on the way home.

Hayden was making jokes and laughing and went to the store with me to buy jello etc...

then he and Ethan were off to the mountain because

"he had work to do!"

love that kid!

Wordless Wednesday....

THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME....

??????

I swear....this is what it feels like they are saying is coming our way!!

I'm scared....but not because of the epic snow forecast

(possible 5 feet on thru/fri)

but because....I'm fixin to leave my kids alone for a week

with what seems like this coming!!

I have very mixed feelings....

I need to go, the ticket is bought, 42 people are depending on me

I know Brittnee and Hayden are very capable of handling this but....

what if :

1. We cant get off the mountain? (probably need to leave a day earlier then planned!)

2. The power is out for several days after we leave?

3. What if they get scared?

4. What if a tree falls on my house?

5. What if cell service is down?

6. What if they (Hayden lol) has an accident? (sunrise die hard that he is)

7. What if we don't go and it just blows over leaving a very wet foot or two?

8. What if, What if, What if.....

I know alot of you are praying for SNOW SNOW SNOW....but if you wouldn't mind praying for alittle less I would appreciate it...just this once! And hey! if you wouldn't mind checkin in with my kids over the weekend you would be my hero!!

If you have not guessed it yet.....

She's goin to Hawaii with Rich and I in two weeks!

You will have to guess ......

Advice for the day....

One too many tricks does not a good day make!

As most of you know...Hayden is a snowboard instructor at Sunrise. Been doing if for four years now. This year he was super excited to be hired on full time. Today was his first day to free ride.

We got a call around 1:20 from Hayden. He told us that he was pretty sure he had broken his collar bone. So Rich said he would go up and pick him up...when he was about half way there the ski patrol (Hayden's good friend Brandon) called to tell Rich to turn around because they were calling an ambulance. I guess when he stood up he about passed out and was having blood pressure problems (no surprise there) and so they felt safer calling the ambulance for transport. Took forever for them to get him ready and loaded and back to Show Low. We waited at the hospital...and waited...and waited.

I guess what happened was he was doing a 180 (the 5th or 6th of the day) and he caught an edge and came down hard on his shoulder. He was pretty sure he dislocated it also but most likely put it back in place when he took his shirt off. Said he herd popping and was in the worst pain of his life. So he was pretty sure he popped it back in place. He is in a sling (the only thing they can do for it) and he is on some good meds. Will take two months to heal and has to go to an orthopedic surgeon in a week to make sure its healing right. other then that....He said he is heading back up to the mountain tomorrow. HAHA as he will only be the "corral mom" for the ski school for a

LONNNNG TIME!

luckily he listened to his MOMMY and had his helmet on!!

SOO excited!!!

Went to a furniture store today looking for something that I will tell you more about later in the week. But while I was there I found EXACTLY what i have been looking for for a couple of years!!!!

I saw it and fell in love!!!

was scared to look at the price....

it was on sale....$385 (half off after Christmas sale)

they said they got it on a really good close out deal from the manufacture and that is why they could offer it so cheap!

so I put it on lay away on the spot!!

I will pick it up at the end of the month....

It is HUGE and just right for my bedroom

came home and looked it up on line and it retails for

$1799!!!

can you say OH MY GOSH!!
