The Berger 4th of July, never a dull moment!!

Well, we had an interesting fourth of july. After cleaning the house and Colin finishing up most of the deck, Colin missed the last step coming down off of the neck, bent his right angle about 90' and ended up tearing three ligaments on the outside of his right foot.
We had to rush to the ER.

Thankfully Starr's best friend and our adoptive daughter and her parents came right over and they took care of the rest of the bbq and made sure everyone got fed. WE ARE BLESSED TO HAVE THEM.
We got home a little after 8 where Colin accepted that he wasn't going to be able to shoot off the fireworks and instructed the girls to. They did great, it was a little scary at first, but Starr and Sarah took over and made our evening very fun and colorful.
It was all very interesting. Anabel decided she didn't want the sparkler anymore, so she threw it, LIT, on my lap on top of the other sparklers ... thankfully i had fast reflexes and was able to throw it to the side  before the others lit up on my lap!

Poor Colin, he'll be laid up for at least 2 months, that if he doesn't have to have surgery, he's just not that type of person, he will go crazy!

Happy fourth of july, God bless our armed forces!

  1. Poor guy! Glad y'all had help. Sorry we couldn't make it. Poor B's leg was hurting so bad last night! About 30 minutes after I gave him some Tylenol with codeine he zonked out about 9:00pm!
