First off Matthew and I caught the flu flying to Washington, so that first Friday night I was throwing up and then Saturday morning everyone was watching and playing/distracting Matthew so that I wouldn't get the others sick, hopefully. Unfortunately, I hadn't gotten sleep, or eaten anything in a while so on my last trip to throw up I fainted after I walked in the door and bonked the tip of my skull near my eyebrow on the shower enclosure. So when I woke up, I threw up and then realized I had a golf ball on my eyebrow... or at least that's what it felt and I'm sure looked like. I'm pretty sure I scared Ryan's mom when she came in later.
After a bunch of ice and later ibprofen I could start opening it fully again on Sunday night, then it started turning very pretty colors. On monday it looked like I had really heavy purple makeup on, and just forgot to do the one eye.
Unfortunately, everyone else got sick right after I did over the weekend, though luckily Matthew never threw up and only Steven had the flu as bad as I did.
Anyways, later in the week Ryan came and we went dirtbiking for our date on Thanksgiving morning. Of course I wrecked. The first time wasn't that bad, the second was really bad (I killed my knee and leg, and it was very painful to walk/ride home), then third time I was just stupid and dazed because my leg hurt so bad on the ride back.
So here are some pictures, of course we saw lots of family, and overall it was lots of fun. We just had the flu and I got beat up a lot.
We told matthew to have just one, so he brought me just one then ate the rest of the m&m's by the fistful until we hid them. |
His favorite people were Grandpa, Steven, and Great-grandma.. |
I had to stand with my leg straight or it hurt too badly, I have a black eye, and I'm wet up to my thighs, but it was lots of fun! |
