Dee Update

Dee had surgery Tuesday and everything went really well. He had to have two metal plates inserted permantely in his jaw and his jaw is wired shut for 6 weeks. He was in the hospital for two days but was relased thursday night. He is so happy to be home and so am I! I hate hospitals! I basically lived there for 3 days with him. Anyway, Ill keep everyone updated but so far so good.. We are experimenting with new foods we can liquify(mostly like smoothies and soups), by the time this is over, I will be an expert.

Poor, poor Dee:(

Im writing this blog to clear the air. A lot have people have been watching the news or have heard about a coach being assulted, Yes, it was dee. Friday night Granger(who dee coaches for) played Highland at Highland. Granger lost the game and a lot of the kids were upset about it. It is protocol for the team to get on the bus after the game and go back to the school as a team. Dee saw one of his players crying and walking away so he went over to him and told him"its ok, lets get on the bus" The boys father was with him and said "I got him, leave us alone" Dee said again, come on lets just get on the bus. The dad proceeded to grab his sons helmet and completely blind side him in the side of the head. Dee blacked out. Next thing he remembers is waking up in an ambulance. He has a broken jaw in 2 places and a pretty bad concusion. They addmitted him friday night for observation but released him saturday morning. He is doing ok, just in a lot of pain(obviously). He is going to have to have surgery sometime this week, they are waiting for the swelling to go down. They are going to have to place 2 metal plates in his face (that will stay there permanently) and have to wire his jaw shut for at least 6 weeks. As far as the guy that did this- He was booked in the salt lake county jail with no bail. He is charged with aggravated assult and a type 2 felony. They really wont give me more info til monday. We have to hire an attorney and are definately pressing charges. Needless to say, Dee is done coaching high school football for the year.. He says. Thank you for all your concern, thoughts and prayers, we really appreciate it.

The Fair!!

Ok some people think the fair is such a white trash place to go but, I love it!! Its become a tradition over the past few years for me, my dad and the boys to hit the fair on opening day. I love the food, the animals(baby pigs!), all the freak shows- like worlds smallest horse or biggest alligator, but my absolute favorite thing to do at the fair is people watch. I swear it is a gathering of the weirdest people in salt lake city! Its hilarious!
