Tessa's toe injury

 Poor Tessa got a horrible smashed toe. Mia brought home a shell from girls camp, and the little girls went outside with it. They were trying to brake it open by throwing rocks down onto it. Reese picked up a big rock and threw it down as hard as she could, and it landed on Tessa's poor tiny toe. Reese was crying almost as hard as Tessa :,(

It looked so horrible and sad, but Tessa was so tough. It looked like the layer of skin just all separated from her toe from the force. I decided to keep the skin the help protect her little raw toe underneath, and we gave her clean bandages every day with lots of neosporin.

Seriously such a tough little angel smiling after she got all bandaged up

Almost a week later, and she went swimming today. We've kept it bandaged up and changed the bandage 2-3 times a day as she's been running around and playing. She's such a tough girl

One week later and looking a lot better

Our bodies are amazing!

Today her skin sloughed off and the new skin underneath looks pretty good. Kind of gross, but I can't believe how big this skin that tore off is. Such a tough little girl. And our bodies really are incredible that she's healed this much after a week and a half.

 

We bleached Rhett's hair for the summer. He was pretty stoked :)

Reese was so excited to give Chris her Father's day gifts. Chris still has a hard time smiling after his face surgery.

Poor Reesie got pooped on

Had some fun with some temporary hair color in the girls' hair

Chris made the sweetest plan for our 13th anniversary. We spent a night camping in the Uintahs which was so beautiful and incredible. Then we went to Park city to spend another night in a nice hotel. We went mountain biking in Park City and then stayed in Hotel Park City for the night and went to Ruth's Chris for dinner. It was such a fun little getaway together.

After Chris ate almost half a pan of brownies, Tessa patted his belly and said "You are soooo hungry."
