Spring Break- day 8
We thought after Wed we were done with our near death experiences, but no. Today we went to see Jim's Grandma Bev again. While we were there Steve and Gina picked up Jarom and Amery to go shopping. While they were gone, the rest of us went with Grandma Bev's to the famous Neptunes net. We saw a whale on the way. On the way home, Dallen and Evan got out to play on the beach. Evan was burried by a huge wave and had to drive home in his underwear. When I did laundry, I found lots of sand in his jeans pockets. When we got back we all went swimming, except for Jarom and Steve. They went for a drive in his side by side (it is like a small jeep). While we were swimming, we got a phone call. It was Steve saying they had been in an accident and needed to go to the hospital. Gina took of to get them, and Jim and I got the kids out of the pool and situated. Then met them at the hospital. It turns out they were on a steep mountain. They turned wrong and ended up going flipping the vehicle all the way down the hill, 30 times. Jarom was fortunate. He just ended up really bruised and sore. He injured his foot pretty bad, he had to have it wrapped and be on crutches. Steve on the other hand, had 3 broken ribs, a bruised lung, he almost lost an ear (luckily they were able to sew it back on), his elbow had to be stitched, and he was very scratched and bruised up. We are lucky they are alive. Even know we hated to spend our last night in the hospital, we are counting our blessings this day.

Holy cow! I had no idea about the accident. I'm so glad no one was more seriously hurt (not that broken ribs are anything to laugh at, but it could've been so much worse). Stay off those steep roads!
