Kendall's Back

So last Saturday Kendall was working on building our Golden Retriever Chloe a Whelping Box. She was about to have her puppies and we needed a place for the puppies. I was trying to get the trailer with our 4 foot mower on it hooked up to the suburban so that we could take it off and if Kendall felt up to it he could mow the lawn later. He noticed I was having trouble getting it on the ball so he came over to help. The suburban was too high for it so Kendall thought he would just lift the trailer up onto the ball being just a few inches from being on. Well he lifted and felt pain shoot up his spine. He looked as though he was about to pass out. He made it into the house and thought he would lay down and see if that would make it feel better. I got my sisters to take my kids to the Spanish Fork Reservoir and then I called the Ambulance. So off to the the ER at Payson Hospital. They took X-rays and did some tests and came to the conclusion that he had torn all the muscles in his lower back. So they sent him home with some medication to help him heal and he started Physical Therapy on Monday for it. Kendall's PT said that he was running out of body parts for him to work on. hee hee
Any way the Patio is on hold for a bit. Hope to get some of his friends over to help get it done because if Kendall starts feeling better he will do more then he should and hurt himself worse. Chloe had her Pups on Friday night July 2, 2010. She started having them at about 7:15 PM and had her last one around 11:30 PM. Eight puppies in all. They are really cute. We think the father was the Yellow Lab in the neighborhood. So if anyone wants a puppy let me know. Not that anyone is even following my blog. Oh well.

Patio

So I guess that blogging is the way to stay in touch and let people know that you haven't dropped off the face of the earth therefore I think I will try to keep this updated for the masses.
Our latest project at our house is a patio. It is going to look gorgeous. We are using some Red Rocks and got some Red sandstone for the Patio itself. The red sandstone we got from a company that supplies rock for big projects like temples. The sandstone was used on the Walt Disney World Headquarters Building. Our fire pit is part of one of the columns from the Utah State Capitol Building. It is really starting to pull together. We hope to have some really great places for people to get pictures taken right in our yard.
