Crash, Bang, Boom and Yum

How was everyone's Easter?

Ours was yummy and painful, wierd combination, I know!

While I had Easter linner (lunch/dinner) at PB's house, Seth was out 4wheelin with R and R's brother. So I had the yummy part and he had the painful part.

The trails they were riding were pretty wet from all the rain we've been having and on one particular straight-away Seth was going fast (as always) and started going through a puddle (not normally any cause for concern). Well as he was going through, his front wheels sank down into the mud and instead of the wheels staying straight and going through the puddle fine, they turned abruptly and sent him and the 4 wheeler tumbling-thankfully in oposite directions. Seth said he landed about 25 feet away from the 4wheeler after doing some somersaults, rolls and sliding to a stop. Thankfully R's brother was riding behind Seth and was able to be there when it happened to make sure he was Ok, and he was, besides having the breath knocked out of him, being scratched up and bruising some ribs. It definitely could have been a lot worse, so we Thank God that it wasn't!

The 4wheeler made it out fairly unscathed. The handlebars were bent pretty bad, and Seth got them close to normal, but we will probably have to replace them b/c when you are driving now, it feels like you are constantly turning right with the new angle they are at.

So we had an interesting day! That was the highlight (lowlight??) of the day. Other than that we had gone to church, volunteered in the nursery, went to Walmart, the grocery store, baked a carrot cake, made mud/dirt, and went to dinner at Bonefish for A's birthday (R's wife). Long day!
