Well guys, we just got back from our vacation, and had a blast! We took the camper to a beautiful campground in Florida. Brady of course made a ton of friends in the park, but seemed to really take to one of the lady park rangers there :) By the time we left, she was calling him "Blue Eyes". We spent a ton of time in the water, and even with sunscreen, Brady came back with a slight sunburn. We rode the waverunners a lot in the 4 days that we were there, as you can see in the pics. One time when I was riding Brady, we had the coolest thing happen. We slowed down in the water to take a break, and was able to watch 8 or more dolphins swimming all around us. Brady loved everything about the trip, even the hospital visit that he got to make :( So before we left home, we were getting the camper loaded. Brady decided to run straight for the door and dove out head first. I totally freaked and was screaming before I could even get to him. His dad came running out and his brother and Brady was just laying on the ground looking at us in shock. We checked him out, but found only his ankle to be hurt. When we stood him up he didn't want to stand, but seemed to get better as the day went on. He had a big abrasion on his ankle, but seemed ok. So we left that afternoon, heading to Florida. The next day, we were going swimming and Brady stepped off of a log, I guess he twisted the ankle wrong and started crying, refusing to bear any weight on it. So we left about 5pm, taking him to the hospital there, to get it exrayed. We ended up waiting several hours, but the doc said it was just a sprain, which were still not sure is right. He is walking, but very much favoring the other foot. I think if he isnt any better by tomorrow, we will probably go back for more exrays. So yeah, our lives are always filled with drama and excitement, but we still had a blast,lol. Anyways, I am so tired by now, we haven't been home long. I'm heading to bed after I get these pics posted. I will feel you guys in on more details later, and keep you posted on Little Man's foot.
