Easter Weekend and...

I began uploading pictures to tell you about our Easter weekend, and Spring Break, and life intervened, and so I was planning on finishing it tonight, and then..... then life Really intervened. I ended up spending the evening in the hospital, and want to think about Easter another day. And just want to keep my far-flung family and friends, and the close ones too, informed, so that you know what's going on and so you can keep us in your prayers. First of all, everyone is FINE, beyond a little road rash and some stitches, and, I really can't even laugh about it yet, but, some jostled front teeth. Gary ran in front of a four-wheeler this evening and got run over. The stitches are in his top lip, and his nose is swollen. His front top teeth are loose, and he has road rash in various places from his feet to his hairline. He had xrays and CT scans, and everything looks fine inside. They sent him in an ambulance from Mesquite, where we had taken him, to the Children's hospital in Vegas, just to keep him under observation for the night. Chad rode with him and stayed there, and I came home to be with the kids and will go in in the morning. I hope to report soon that he is back to his normal self. We are so very grateful that things were not worse, as they so could have been. I am also so very grateful for so much family here that helped with so many things tonight. Thank you.
The pictures, well they're still here. I don't know what to do with them. I'll figure it out later.
I think Gary's going to be hurting tomorrow. Will you keep him in your prayers? Prayers of gratitude too, that he is OK. Thank you. Goodnight.
