A not so fun day on the bike trail!

These first pictures are just of the girls, of course, because they are so dang cute! Sometimes they like to sit together for a minute, until one starts punching or eating the other one!!! I was trying to get a good picture of Kennedy smiling but we just can't seem to get one, believe me that it is cute!
Here is our little Logan doing what she loves...cleaning! She loves to use the little cleaning wipes to clean everything she can reach. Sometimes I suggest places like the walls and baseboards that don't get much attention. In this picture she is cleaning the big chunk she took out of the wall with the metal plant holder that you see in the corner saying that it was dirty..yea.

Everything hard seems to find its way to Kurt's head, isn't he still so cute anyway!!!
And now for my "special" husband Kurt. He got a new mountain bike for his birthday the other day and wanted to take it out for a stroll. He and our brother-in-law, Clay, decided to go for a ride in Bountiful. I am sure Kurt could tell the story better, but he said that he was just about down the trail when he must have hit something or pushed on his front breaks too hard and he flipped over the bike (bike still attached to his feet) and landed on his head and shoulder. Luckily he was wearing his helmet because there are some pretty good dings in it and it also has a crack in it. Once he untangled himself from the tree he ran into, he picked up his bike and rode to the bottom of the trail to wait for Clay; who by the way got a flat tire close to the beginning of the trail and had to walk his bike the rest of the way down. Once Clay got down they decided that they better take Kurt to the instacare to see if he broke his collar bone. The doctor did an X-Ray and said that she couldn't see any breaks but that he probably tore or bruised the tendons and ligaments and that he had to wear this brace thingy. She said that if that was all it was that he should start feeling better and be able to move a little more in about 72 hours. If he didn't feel better at all, it could be something else. She sent him home with 4 different medications and told him that he may need to do some physical therapy. Needless to say I think that he won't be doing a whole lot for the next while, including helping me with the babies, since even a 5 pound baby is hard to hold with one working arm. (yea for me)
This is what his back looks like, I still don't know what it looks like under all that bandage!(that must be what the antibiotics are for?!?!!!)
