BBQ...Motorcycles...Friends....and a CraSH!!!

Okay....so on the 24th Will n I went over to the Gibson's house for a BBQ!!! Will cooked some awesome ribs and everyone else cooked some great food like salads, chicken, shrimp, dutch oven potatoes ....well we took our motorcycle out there cuz their backyard is where Will built a track and all they guys get together and ride out there. There was me n Will, the Gibson family, the Lee family and the Jacksons. We were all having so much fun riding the mini bike and four-wheelers and watching Will race around the track going Mach 90!!! So on the very last lap Will was going to ride we were all sitting on the grass watching him, he went around the first corner fine and hit this little jump and landed fine...I looked away for a split second and when I turned back I saw the worst thing I have ever seen.... Will went flying in the air over his handle bars and his bike flipped forward a couple time and I watched Will lay on the ground with his bike right beside him. Some of our friends were screaming and I jumped out of my chair and sprinted across the track to him cuz I know Will and he didn't get up fast so I knew he was hurt. When I got over to him he had stood up and was walking his bike off the track. I looked at his face and it was cut up and bleeding and he was about half out of it. Ollie came over on the 4wheeler and Vaughn came over and Will kept saying he was okay but he was out of it. He took off his helmet...which was busted....and his face was all dirty and bleeding(see the pic below). He hurt his wrist pretty bad. Ne ways.....needless to say after that happened I was a wreck. I have never seen Will or anyone crash like that right in front of me and I had to hold back from crying cuz I didn't want to scare all the kids but I just want to say how important helmets and gear are to wear when riding. I know that Will would have been way more beat up than he is had he not been wearing his gear. I am so glad that we have great friends who are so good to us and that we were able to go spend the day with them. Ne ways.....I love my Willy and I am sooooo grateful to the Man upstairs for watching over him ;)

We got a new car!!! woo-hoo!!!

So on Saturday Will n I decided to go check out this big car liquidation they had at the Pontiac Silverdome cuz we have been looking for a new car and we thought...hey what the heck lets go check it out. So we went there not even thinking we would find nething we liked but of course we found this Mazda 6 and after Will drove it we both were pretty much sold on it. It's a 2005 and I am really impressed with how clean it is. So of course the first thing we did when we got home is WASH it and then of course it rained cuz it's Michigan but oh well. Ne ways we are really blessed to have been able to get this car at such a good deal and we were really needing another one. Woo-HOo!!



Also...Will built a workbench in our garage on Saturday. It looks awesome...I don't have ne pics of it finished yet but this is him building it. It's great cuz he built it so it has shelves for storage and all his tools go nicely on it!!!

My 4th of July Cookies....YUMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!












For Independence Day weekend...Will n I headed over to Benton Harbor Michigan, which is on the Western Side of the State. We stayed overnight two nights at a nice hotel in Benton Harbor!!! It was really sweet...they had a nice pool and hot tub and I played in the pool while Will relaxed in the hot tub. We ate at IHOP the first night there and got milkshakes and drove over to St. Joseph and walked along Silver Beach. It was really pretty. The sun was setting and it was sooooo nice. On the 4th we drove about 20 minutes to Buchanan, Michigan to watch Pro-Motocross at Red Bud Track. It was really really really busy. There was like 20k people there. We set up our chairs and walked around. The track was HUGE!!! We set up our little area with chairs and a blanket and our cooler full of H20 and of course Rockstars!!!! We ate some yummy homeade corndogs and shaved ice...of course...it's a must on the 4th!!! We watched the races and of course I was cheering for Chad Reed and Will for Ivan Tedesco. Chad Reed won the 1st Moto and took 3rd in the second so he took 2nd overall. Josh Grant won the 2nd moto. But the best part was at the end of the 2nd moto when Reed and Tedesco were fighting for 2nd up until the finish...Tedesco won but it was awesome!!!!!!!!! We decided to leave early because honestly we were totally smoked out. Everyone around us was smoking like crazy and after a couple hours there my stomach got really sick from the smoke. Also people were getting beer on my blanket so we both agreed it was time to leave. We headed back into town and decided to go find somewhere to eat dinner. We picked Pizza Hut cuz it was the least busiest and sounded the best. After dinner we decided to go back to the hotel and go swimming. We swam and then watched Home Alone 2 on TV. It was soooooo fun for us to get to spend so much time together relaxing. We just got home and unloaded the car and now we are going to watch AK and Tiger play some Golf. GO AK!!!!!! Ne ways...we had a great holiday and we are both so grateful to live in America........ God Bless America!!!
