Can't I just have a normal weekend?!?!

So you get 2 posts today, and this one is long- deal with it.

I have been asked to blog and post pics of our great weekend.

For those who don't know already here is the story of what happened.

On friday I was sitting at work when I got a call from Danny telling me that,

he had scuffed his new shoes...

when he broke his arm...

when he wrecked the motorcycle.

Okay wait, wait, wait. Say that again...

Yes you all read that right, He. Wrecked. My. Motorcycle. (okay its ours not mine but still)

At this point in our phone conversation I had to tell him that I would call him right back because I had a sudden urge that I should run to the bathroom.

Okay everyone stop panicing and breath , don't worry I was ok-

I just had to pee, oh yeah and vomit a little.

I then rush into my boss open my mouth and start the water works.

(Danny told me later that I should have known he was fine because he is the one who called me, not the hospital, But we all know Danny and lets face it he lies, there could have been blood and goo all over the place and he would just giggle that it looked cool.)

But anyways I told my boss that Danny had just been in an accident and I needed to go. She kindly shoved me out of the office ( I think I was sobbing on her papers)

I got in the car and headed to payson. When I got to the ER I walk in to find Him laying there with a huge smile and no pants.

Okay the back of his pants were still hooked to the waist band but the front, except the pockets, were gone.

Which then just made me mad- really people, he is in the ER I am paying you lots of money to fix him, get the man some scrubs.

Once I calmed down and realized that Danny was really okay he told me the story...

He was driving on I-15 between Payson and Spanish Fork when, what witnesses say, for no apparent reason 2 cars in front of Danny locked up her breaks.Danny saw smoke coming from her tires and the car in front of him hit her breaks, so he started to tap his. Due to the newly paved road it was slick and the bike started to slide. Danny looked behind him for a way out but instead saw a Semi. He made a quick desicsion that it was better to hit the car in front of him rather than get hit by a semi so he let off his breaks curled up to protect him self and leaned the bike to start going over. He hit the bumper of the car in front of him and tumbled. Luckily he had been able to slow down to about 30mph by the time of impact- which from personal experience 30 still sucks, but it is better than 50 mph.
The semi luckily had good breaks and was able to stop!
Luckily no other vehicles hit and no one other than Danny was injured.
Danny ended up with a shattered right arm above the wrist. It broke both the ulna and radius so they ended up doing surgery Saturday morning, putting a plate and 11 screws in his wrist/arm.
He also has a broken toe, a little road rash on his arm and elbow and some brusing on his arms and legs.
All in all he came out pretty good and compared to what it could have been I'll take it.
Danny has voiced his disaproval that we don't have camera phones so he was not able to take pics of his hand coming out at a 45 degree angle off of his wrist, but here are some pictures of him and the bike, post surgery.

New Shoes!!!

So we all remember when I first met Danny and he wore 2 pairs of socks and army boots every day even with shorts.

Well I thought it would just be a fluke thing when his friend talked him into buying a pair of Nike shocks. He bought a pair of just plain looking shocks nothing fancy and ended up wearing them every day till they fell apart.

I thought that it would be the end of tennis shoes untill the other day when he came home with these

(dont't worry, he still wears 2 pairs of socks with them, he is only in ankle socks because of the new tattoo, and it's driving him crazy!!)

I am such a sucker

So the other day I was home alone for way too long. I was looking out the window (okay I was spying) at my neighbor Tom. Tom was talking to a guy in one of those big frezzer trucks. When they were finished talking the guy in the truck looked over and caught me in the window. He then started up the drive way, I met him at the door to try keep the dogs in but Jack managed to escape. As the guy was playing with Jack it started...

The "are you the lady of the house routine" at this point I should have just hauled Jacks butt back in the house but I was bored so I humored him and said yes.

He then went into the whole spill about this fabulous meat product he was selling and ran to his truck to get some to show me. Again that should have been my que to turn around and go back in the house, but he was so nice to Jack that I stayed (that and Jack followed him) So he comes back with this HUGE box of meat and starts telling me how wonderful it is I start to look interested when BAM..

He hits me with the price of "only $379.00" At this point I actually started to laugh and told him there was no way I could do that. He then turned very sympathetic (sneaky) and says well what if I can give you a deal?

5 min and $200.00 later I called Danny in a panic demanding that he come home now because I did something bad. Between sobs I finally got out what I had done (blaming it all on Tom of course) My absolutely wonderfully understanding husband started laughing at me, all he said was "well it is good meat"

Needless to say he was home in about 15 min.

So if any of you would like to join me in my spending habits, it really is good meat and you should check out their web site www.madisontaylorentrees.com, because one of the conditions of such a good deal was that I would spread the word about them.

They deliver all over Utah, Idaho and wyoming and the guy asured me that they always have good deals going.

(I love this picture of Jack looking so sweet just begging for steak, and yes because I am that big of a sucker he got some)

I'll give it a try...

Okay since we have finally joined technology land and got a decent computer and the internet (no applause nessesary) I thought that I would give this blogging thing a try...
Don't hope for too much and rememeber its just the way we are.
