Update

It was 30 stitches...

The Nail

Day 1 in Tahoe---We checked in, the house is awesome, and we just got back from the EMERGENCY ROOM!  No, I'm not kidding.  John sliced his leg open from a nail on the coffee table---5 inches long.  It took 29 sutures to repair his poor calf.  The entire ER staff said it was "very impressive."

Somehow I reacted perfectly and John is really proud of me so that makes me happy.  I remained calm, rushed him to the ER, took care of all the insurance stuff and photo documented the entire thing so that we can deal with the owners later.  My one mistake was accidentally calling Alicia, John's sister back in Pennsylvania--Sorry Alicia!!!

Here are some of the pics---I'll update with the worst ones later.  WARNING: MAY CAUSE QUEESY PEOPLE TO VOMIT.

24 Hours til Tahoe

All I want to do right now is crawl back into bed with my future hubby and dream of yesterday. Christmas was amazing---Davis was adorable. The funny thing about being a 4-year-old boy at Christmas is that you really don't care about any present in particular, more just the act of running to the Christmas tree to go grab another hidden gift and tear THAT wrapping paper to shreds. I still hear him---"Is this one for MMMEEEEE? Is this one for MMMEEEE???"

My favorite present this year is dance lessons that John got for us. I was planning on getting them before the wedding at some point but to have him get them was a true surprise! It's good to know he's in and that I don't have to feel bad now for dragging him away from the TV to go to dance class.

Tomorrow we leave for Lake Tahoe--we're staying in an awesome house with I think about 14 people. I can only imagine how this is going to play out---it kinda reminds me of the MTV reality show THE REAL WORLD.

This is a true story, of 14 friends, picked to live in a house....

to find out what happens, when people stop being polite...

and start getting real.

After an annoying and long evening trying to get this right; here it is.

E-Pics are Here!!!

Dogs Logs

We had a stinky suspicion that Rambo had worms so we made him a doctors appointment for Monday. They needed a "fresh" POOP sample so John and I arranged that I would go home for lunch and I would be the designated DUNG collector. I would leave it for him as a gift on the "Welcome" mat. Feeling very silly for collecting FECAL MATTER I immediately called John after lunch...

Me-"You're going to be very proud of me! I left some SHIT for you at our front door!"
John-"Thanks. I'm leaving here in 20 minutes to take Rambo to the vet."

Apparently nothing we planned stuck in John's head...he threw the LINCOLN LOGS away! He forgot our entire BUSINESS plan!!! So John arrived at the vet STOOLLESS! After doing some initial testing (finding gum in Rambo's paw, realizing the pup had a 103 degree fever, and pointing out some flee dirt in this fur) they planned on doing some bloodwork. In the meantime, John had to go back to the house to dig the COLON CANNONBALLS out of the trash! Talk about adding insult to injury!!!

Regardless of the SHITTY situation, Rambo is very sick and I feel very bad for him. I despise people that abuse animals. The poor puppy has already been threw so much CRAP in his short life (we found out he's only 8 weeks old!) Some people are just cruel. I'm just happy we can provide a good home for Rambo and make it up to him for the rest of his life!
