Memorial weekend



So we had planned on making our way up to camp for memorial day, today. Unfortunately having all boys in my house plans can change at any moment...... Jordan decided to get into the fishing gear while we were packing. Can you guess what is coming next? Yep you guessed it .....He put a hook through his finger. I could hear him out in the driveway screaming. After several attempts to remove it we all packed into the car and drove to our local ER instead of camp. It wasn't a bad trip all in all. The nurse called him the catch of the day (which didn't amuse him at all) after 5 shots in his finger and one call to maintenance for wire cutters it was out. He was very brave, he layed there and watched the Pirate game on TV (he likes watching baseball more than cartoons). They gave him a stuffed doggie to help him with his bravery. Here are the pictures of him with his doggie and of the hook. Dad can't stand the site of blood, the smell of hospitals, any of it, so he stayed in the waiting room with Cody (at one point Cody had to wake him up and tell him to stop snoring!) Maybe they should have given Tom the doggie instead!

Yea, that had to hurt. However, its good you did go to the ER, as I'm sure he also got a tetnis (sp)shot. I hope there was a trip to DQ on the way home.
