Jordan sledding

Hello! This past Monday the boys had the day off for Presidents’ Day so we went sledding at this great hill down the road at the local high school.

Brodie sledding

We discovered a super fun mogul built & left by others. (Don’t you love that sort of stranger kindness?!)

Luke sledding

It was all fun & games, as they say….

We found a little mogul. #sledding #winter #boys

I was happily snapping photos of the boys & their friend & put this up on Instagram right before my turn.

WARNING: x-ray shot coming if you’re extra sensitive.

Remember the boys' mogul? Guess who dislocated their thumb doing the same? #ouch

Well, I caught a lot of air off the little mogul…and then my little thumb caught a lot of ground. Ouch!

wall art

Four hours, at least a dozen various medical professionals, and 1 piece of bright wall art to stare at while getting the 4 local shots to numb the thumb & my thumb was popped back into place.

Amazing how the body can do that!

hands

The boys have tried their hand at the splint & pretend they’re injured pirates.

Sadface Jordan

When I asked Jordan to pose he gave me sadface, which cracked me up. This is pretty much what I look like, but not as cute.

Quilt WIP - almost there!

To end on a good note, the raffle crazy quilt is coming along! I’d love to show you the other ladies, but one of my new friends didn’t realize I’m snapping photos constantly, so I had to promise not to post her photo “all over the Internet”. We bloggers can be a weird breed. ;)

Speaking of weird, can you guess what my first thought was when the physicians assistant gave me this tape? ;)

P.S. this post was typed 1 handed, so forgive any formatting/spelling errors, all the &’s, & know that the rest of this week will be more of a photo journal. ;)

Oh! You poor dear! I hope that you heal soon. Those sledding pictures looked amazingly fun, though!
