September 2009

September was quite full of memories for our family
~ some great memories, as well as some really awful ones~

We had a big family day at our house on September 5th, to welcome my cousin Abbey's fiance Steve, his son Dade, and his mom Judy to our family.
We did some four-wheeling

Four-Wheeler Accident

On Labor Day, September 7th, we had the worst night ever. Keith and John took the boys on a four-wheeler ride. They didn't go anywhere out of the ordinary or anything. Keith had Dustin on ours and John had Cody with him, Cody riding in front. Coming up out of the creek, John pulled the four-wheeler over on top of him and Cody. Keith was right behind them, and was able to get it off of them. Cody was able to crawl out on his own, but he was pretty banged up. John needed help getting out from under it. Keith called to get the ambulance on the way, then called up to the house, where I had just gotten home literally 5 minutes before the phone rang. I raced down there, beating the ambulance by a few minutes. Cody and I took our first ambulance ride, with PaPa John with us. Cody had many tests, a ct scan, and x-rays done. He was released from the ER about 5 1/2 hours after the accident happened. John had x-rays done, and was admitted, needing to have surgery the following day. He had broken his leg at his hip area. Cody had a fractured maxilla (cheekbone) and a very bruised and battered face, a banged up ear, along with a little road rash on his arm. He was such a brave little guy though! I was completely amazed!
this was in the ER, about 5 hours after the accident
