I don't know where to start with this trip but here it goes... we rented a boat with my sister in law Jessica and her husband David and our neighbors Nate and Joyce. Russell Nate and Joyce left and picked up the boat around five. Jessica David and I stayed behind and prepared tinfoil dinners and we were going to just meet them at the lake before it got dark. At the time we were waiting for my mother in law to get home so we could drop off Cadyn my cute nephew off at her house to spend the night. As time past it got darker and darker it wasn't till about 8:30pm till we were able to head towards lake mead. We get there about 9:30pm and there are cops everywhere checking everyones boat and my lovely husband is talking with the cops about our unequipped boat that we rented. So after unpacking all of our gear and realizing one of us had to drive back into town and go to walmart for a light that shine 360 degrees all the way around so people can see you on the lake. Our wonderful brother in law David volunteers. So were waiting for about two hours until he finally gets back in between that two hours of boredum on the dock my husband decides to pee off of the side of the dock and in the darkness a cop wearing all black yells and says "you in the shorts meet me at the end of the dock NOW!!!" so Russell head down and is talking with one cop while the one who catches him comes over to see if we have any alcohol in our coolers and i said no sir we don't drink, but he is my husband and the cops says "well i can arrest your husband and take him to jail and register him as a sex offender from exposing his private parts in public!!!!" i said oh my goodness ok and the officer says ill be back. goes over to finish the conversation with Russell but thank fully because there were no kids around they didn't arrest him! SCARE #1 David finally arrives back from walmart getting the light that we needed and were off to find a camping spot! after 10 min we find 3 random people walking along sandy beach a little tipsy but kind enough to help us ashore. We all unpack our sleeping gear get out our chairs and start a fire to cook our wonderful tinfoil dinners. While waiting for our dinner its about 1am and we are all starving checking the food once not cooked wanting to check it twice BURNT TO CRISPY TINFOIL!!! UPSET #2 So we had no dinner but yummy smores! We all get ready for bed and me and Russell sleep at the front of the boat Jessica and David are sleeping in the back of the boat on the floor and Nate and Joyce slept on the sand! We head out first thing that morning and realize we have no flag to hold once someone is down so we had a part of a towel that was orange to hold up. No one new how to drive the boat except Russell so when Russell went it was the scariest thing for me. we head back to camp to eat breakfast. David wanted to do scones so he brought his dutch oven and some oil and started heating that. While we were making scone the fire got so hot the it caught on fire and started producing big Black smoke and everyone got only two lil scones each. we had to sand out the fire so much it ruined the only pan we had for our eggs and bacon! so we had a small breakfast! UPSET #3 positively thinking we just headed out and had fun on the water! Last but not least we pack everything up about to load the boat and the wire snaps the one that holds the boat onto the trailer!!!!!!!!!!!!!! my smart husband thankfully had a ratchet strap to hold it tight enough to safely drive back to the renters!!!!!! UPSET #4 One i will never go camping at the lake again! Two we just need to buy our own boat and Three this is a trip that i will never forget!!!!!

Our First Hospital Visit
Every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday my husband goes to ward basketball. Last night or Tuesday night he went to our ward game. He was Defending this 7ft 230lb guy. While Russell went up to block him the other guy landed on Russell and his ankle!!! As a tough guy that my husband is he played the rest of the night acting like nothing was wrong. So we get home and he takes of his socks and here are the results a bruised puffy ankle!!! We call his wonderful mom at 11:30 at night , who is a nurse, for some advice. She guides me through some wonderful techniques like feeling for a pulse or checking how far he can move it around and even if his toes were still pink! After 15 min of me being a nurse he decides just to go to sleep and it will be fine. This morning we wake up to an even more swollen ankle! mind you its elevated and iced all night! so about 10 this morning Cheri came over to check it her self. She told us she thinks it broken but doesn't know for sure and that we need to get it X-RAY ED. My genius husband thinks he is fine and decides he has to go to work instead! so he goes to work for about an hour and half and calls me to tell me i need to meet him at the quick care. I arrive at the quickcare at 1:30pm and we end up with a very very very bad ankle sprain just a little more weight and it would have snapped!! so we left with a bandage and a brace and some krutches! at about 4:30pm we were outta there and the first thing my husband did was throw his krutches in the back of his truck and says he going to play softball tomorrow!!!!!!!!! Do i have a crazy husband or what!!!
