I thought the perfect way to start out the New Year would be at the Fun Center :) Rollerskating, scooters, jump zone, they have it all! The girls had an absolute blast!
I only snapped one photo, but it was completely adorable.
They even had an electronic bull for us to ride... we took some amazing footage of all of us taking on the ferocious bull:
And later that day...
What a way to bring in the New Year, with a trip to the Emergency Room! No surprise, McKel was the recipient of 5 new stitches! The poor girl is so accident prone! But she's also one tough gal! She didn't even cry when the doctor was stitching her up.
The gash was due to a run-in with the granite countertop in the kitchen. It completely gashed open the skin above her left eyebrow...
Poor mom was having a panic attack at the sight of the blood and open wound, I could barely even look... we took the whole family down to the South Jordan U of U ER, and met a lot of nice nurses and doctors, who helped us out over the course of 3 hours...
Avril was having fun pretending that she was a doctor, and even sat in the Doctor's chair. When he came in, she proudly told him that she was the doctor. When asked how many years of school she thought doctors went to, Avril thought about it and then said, "um... twelve?" Not a bad answer for a 5 year old!
Anyway, here are the gruesome pictures that I took of McKel:
split that eyebrow wide open...
I only include this second pic to show you Avril in the background :)
They put numbing medicine on this pirate eye patch, before starting the stitching up process...
Poor McKel
This was after they tried to wash out the wound...
McKel had her eyes wide open the whole time...
The doc did a great job... hopefully it will heal up nice and quickly!
