We really should stay home!!

  We just got back from Monte Cristo, our great friends the Purser's invited us up to their cabin.  It was a great time with some other families in our ward.  All the boys decided to go on a little 4 wheeler trip and they took some of the kids with them.  They were back quickly because all the little ones were not really enjoying the mouth fulls of dirt.  Brian decided to go for a quick ride and said he would be back in about 30 min.   I wasnt completely comfortable  with him going by himself but he did have a GPS walkie with him.  Well after the first hour I started to get nervous and tried to reach him on the walkie talkie with no luck.  The other men just thought he was having a great time riding around.  Sooo going on the third hour I was very worried all sorts of thought run through your head.  Finally we heard someone on the radio saying his name, and got a hold of him.  He was on the other side of the mountain and did not get reception.  Kobe being a fire fighter told me he was just fine and he was going to get him, you know when you have that feeling that they are not telling you the whole story, but they left quickly.  So I got on the radio and got a hold of Brian he had rolled the wheeler 15 min into his ride and lost his radio and the wheeler had tumbled quite a ways down the hill.  He had been up there for a good 2 hours not being able to find his radio.  Luckily, some guys came riding by and Brian yelled to them.  I did not enjoy the many feelings you go through when stuff like that happens!!  So grateful that he only walked away with a few scratches.   Soooo sorry about the Pursers 4 wheeler!!  We will make it right!!   Thanks so much to Kobe, Heather, the Robbins and the Moons for helping us.  We did have a great time, but we will know why we wont be invited next time!!!  =)  We need to stay home and get away from all of our exciting trips!!
