Our eventful time while dad was gone hunting ...

Just to warn you ... I wrote this really quick and did not read back over it ... maybe tomorrow! Please ignore any errors ...


Wow, it has been a while since I have had any time to blog! Lots to say ...

Jason went on a spur of the moment hunting trip on Tuesday, the 9th. He was eating at El Jardin for lunch with a friend and a hunting guide called and had a cancellation and so they got a "deal." So, my husband and three of his friends headed for Arizona that afternoon! VERY SPUR OF THE MOMENT! So, the kids and I were alone for the first time EVER! I decided that we would probably go to my parents for a few nights since Jason was going to be back FRIDAY, but I wanted to go ahead and stay at our house on Tuesday night, get the house cleanish, and then go and stay in Hamilton 2 nights. At 9:15 that evening, all was coming together ... Jentry was watching cartoons, Judson playing still, I had washed all the clothes and was going to pick up the kitchen the next morning, then go to Hamilton. Next thing I know my son runs through my room, trips on the rocker, and smacks his head on the door frame leading into the bathroom. Initially, from impact, it looked as if the bump was going in instead of out which I knew was bad. I called 911! 2nd time in my life I have ever done that (Shelley Hale can probably remember the only other time I ever called 911 ... whole other story). By the time the EMS people got there, I knew I had overreacted since I was home alone! But, better to be safe than sorry, I guess! Thankfully, I knew both the ladies (figured I would doing the AFLAC for the HGH employees). Jessica Sellers was one and she went in and watched Jentry for me while the other checked Judson out and confirmed that he was alright and just needed to be watched! Small town life is great and I was never so happy to see Jessica! I am extremely overprotective as a parent and was so glad she was the one I could have watch Jentry for those few minutes! I also called my parents after 911 and we ended up going ahead and staying with them that night too! So much for cleaning the kitchen the next morning (I thought about it until I got home again)!

Then, Friday, Jason was SUPPOSED to be heading back. He did get a mountain lion that morning ... he ended up getting home MONDAY at 8 am!!! Little different than the initial plan, but he had fun (though he REALLY missed the kids). His mountain lion is going in the record books too! Here's photos ...





Monday night, Judson decides to spin circles in the bedroom while taking a break from golfing. He trips and hits his head on the corner of the dresser! BOYS!!!! So now he had two knots on his head! Poor kid ... Terrible Two's have something to do with it too I guess! Photo follows that shows the bruise from the door frame above his right eye!



Just to clarify ... this was the first time Jason has ever gone anywhere since having kids! What a great feeling for him I'm sure to be on your way to AZ and get a call from the wife that she had to call 911 because your son's hit his head! Poor guy! He is WAY more overprotective than me ... if that's possible!
