This past Tuesday Todd and the boys skipped work and school and went skiing. They had a great day and it was beautiful outside. Trevor has a free pass this year for being a 5th grader and the others had gem pass discounts. Anyhow, they all did really well.
Christen didnt go this time but I did take her out for lunch during school and then she and I went to a 4:30 showing of Tale of Despereau. It was a cute movie. Afterwards we called they boys to see if they were on their way home. Well, they were on their way home alright - via Sky Ridge - the local hospital!!
I really thought that they were joking at first when they said that. But appaerently Todd only had one fall at the end of the day (hit a rock) and dislocated his right shoulder! This happens every once in awhile to him. It actually hasn't happened since his fall off the roof. I guess when he falls it is hard! Usually he can actually pop it back in himself , but not this time. The ski patrol was not too helpful and Todd ended up driving 2 plus hrs to get home - with his arm very still. Christen and I met him at the ER and we had our home teacher, Carl came to pick up one of the cars.
Crazy. At least he doesnt need emergency surgery, however he will be having surgery in the next few months to have the ligaments tightened. This will be after Christen's baptism March 7th - because he will need that arm and handfor that! The last baptism we had - Trevor's - Todd had a broken arm wrapped in a plastic bag!!
So there you go!
not a great pic - they had a disposible camera. Anyhow there was a life flight helecopter back there. He didnt use it but it looked cool.

Sorry to hear about Todd's shoulder! Looks like everyone had fun though, atleast until that rock got in the way!
