Tyler's Motorcycle Accident

This was literally the scariest weekend of my life. I thought my husband was dead. This is the story...I was sitting on the couch watching TV on Saturday during the day. Walt comes into the apartment and says, "Have you heard?" I hadn't and so he told me that Tyler had been in a motrocycle accident. He didn't know if he was okay, the policeman that called him just said that he was at the emergency room. Tyler never wears his helmet (ARE YOU SERIOUS??!!) and so I of course thought that my husband would be dead shortly or that he was brain dead. I started bawling, got dressed and raced to the hospital. It was the scariest moment of my life. I got there and the crisis worker kept us updated and said that Tyler was talking and that he was coherent.
They had to take a CAT Scan and X-Rays but we could finally go back and see him after about 45 minutes. It sure was great to see my husband alive! It turns out he doesn't have any broken bones or brain damage. He should count his lucky stars because someone was watching over him. What happened was: He was on his way home from a meeting to eat lunch. The car in front of him slammed on her breaks and he didn't have enough time to react so he ran into the back of her car and got launched off his motorcycle. His leg got caught in the rear lights and a huge scoop of his leg was torn off. He was taken to the hospital, and he had to get a lot of stiches and tests, but now he is okay. The picture above is a little preview of how he's looking right now. I told him if he ever rides his motorcycle without a helmet, I will personally take a bat to his motorcycle and destroy it. Fair enough? I don't want to become a widow anytime soon.

22nd birthday!




This is me blowing out my "birthday candles" :)


At Texas Roadhouse sitting on the saddle they brought out to sit on when they sang "Happy Birthday!"Friends birthday dinner!
I had a great birthday week! Amanda took me to lunch at Thai Ruby on Tuesday, then I went to dinner with a lot of my other friends on Tuesday night. Wednesday we had an ugly sweater party for our ward, and Thursday was the big day! I had school and work from 10-6 (uggghhh) but then I got done with school, picked up my birthday presents from my mom and dad at my Grandma's house, and Ty and I went to Texas Roadhouse for my birthday dinner. It was delish! We went shopping after, I got a cute jacket, and then we invited Ashley and Bobby and Courtney and Marc to have a bon fire and roast s'mores. It was a great day! My mom and dad got me a cute dress and two new shirts, my grandma and grandpa gave me money, Carol and Walt are getting me scuba diving lessons, Hayden bought my dinner on Tuesday, Heather gave me an adorable necklace, Phyllis gave me a blanket that she made and some money, and Tyler got me a new phone (I still have to go get it!) and a couples massage that we did on Friday! It felt so nice and we really liked it. I think I got food poisoning though, because I woke up at 2am on Friday morning and was sicker than a dog if you know what I mean. Yuck. But I feel much better now! The Parcells are having a birthday dinner for me tomorrow at Happy Sumo and it will be fun! I'm 22!

Bike Ride

Ash and I went on a bike ride to Bridal Veil Falls yesterday and it was a lot of fun :) Later that night we went to CPK for dinner with our husbands and then we saw Marley and Me. It was a good movie and we had a great day!

I'm Still Alive!

What's up y'all? Yes, in case you were wondering I am still alive! What we've been up to: Valentine's day, Tyler bought me a cute sweatsuit from Victoria's Secret, some flowers and chocolates! Then we got takeout from Happy Sumo and saw "Australia." He's been out selling a lot - he went to Idaho last weekend and then St. George this weekend so I had a girl's night with Hayden both Saturday nights! We went to CPK both nights (we love it!) and then we went shopping and watched a movie last week, and went to the BYU basketball this week and got frozen yogurt at Red Mango afterward. Tyler and I went to the temple on Wednesday with his family which was really nice. I love the way it feels inside the temple. It's so peaceful. Then we went to Brick Oven after and it was so good! After dinner tonight, Tyler and I went on a walk outside because it's getting bearable to be outside. Spring is coming soon! It was so nice. I hate being cooped up indoors because I love nature so much, so I'm glad the weather is getting so good!

I graduate in less than two months and I can't believe it. This semester has gone by SO FAST! AND I turn 22 not next week, but the week after on March 19th. How has my life started to fly by!? I remember when I was little thinking people in high school were so BIG. Not to mention college. And now I'm going to be 22 and a college graduate. Somebody pinch me!
