Dustin's LITTLE accident

  So on January 25th approximately 4:40pm I get a phone call from my sweet husband. He tells me everything is ok and I immediately think one of my dogs is dead. (I love my babies!) He goes on to tell me he is fine, he's on the phone with me but he shot his hand. He likes to play tricks on me occasionally, so after I asked him 20 times if he was serious he handed the phone to his uncle, who thank goodness, was there (he used to be a paramedic so he knew what to do). Tony told me Dustin had shot his hand and they were on their way to the doctor to get it checked out. Made it out to be no big deal. I thought maybe.. just maybe... it had grazed his hand? only leaving like a scrape? or something like that. So, I leave work to head to the doctors office. When I get there, they had just unwrapped it and the blood started spurting out. Just like off of the horror movies where with every beat of the heart blood gushes out. Yeah, it was... ugh. Worse than I thought.
  Our doctor says, Whoa. That is an arterial tear. You need to go to the E.R. right now. So off we go with me a basket case driving (acting like everything is ok for my poor baby) and Dustin saying the whole way "im gonna lose it. i'm gonna lose my finger". I prayed and prayed and prayed and prayed.
   We had alot of prayers said for us that evening and even after that I know. After we got to the E.R. (I am so terrible, I had to stop and  get gas on the way! is that ridiculous or what??) They got us in pretty quick. They finally got the bleeding to stop after cauterizing the artery (i guess?) and took X-rays. He barely hit his bone. Did I mention he shot his finger with a .44 mag? Everyone there was amazed he still had a finger. The bullet itself is almost as big as one. He didn't have to have surgery and he was going to be able to move his finger again! We are so blessed. I know he was being watched over through the whole thing. Its so scary to realize how fast things happen.
  His finger has healed amazingly! Its still numb on half of it but he can move it and the entry and exit wounds are almost all healed up! He is going to have some pretty mean scars though! I guess a cool story to tell the kids??

Winter/Holidays

I can not believe tomorrow is the first day of December!! I can't wait to be totally done shopping for presents and have everything wrapped! I HATE wrapping presents. Mom definitely burned me out throughout the years. Thank goodness for gift bags :)

Is it just me, or has Christmas come wayy too fast this year? Maybe planning a wedding in 3 months kinda made things a little bit crazy... Anyways, as if it doesn't already feel like it shouldn't be this time of year, I live in Texas and the weather is nuts!One day, it will be 76 degrees. The next, 40. All I'm sayin is just keep it cold enough it feels like winter and just a couple inches of snow!! Is that too much to ask for? In Texas, yes. Sounds like the husband and I should take a little trip to Utah! Did I mention that I have been drinking hot chocolate since September? I can't help the fact that I am still on a Utah weather schedule...

I am bored at work and just thought I would post a few of my thoughts. I'm sure I will be putting more pictures up soon (christmas trees, decorations, house, honeymoon, sexy husband, my muts, Maggie) Life has just been crazy lately.
