KeNaDiE'S SuRgErY..

The dreaded after surgery pic:)
In the waiting room..
The worst part!
Being silly:)
Kenadie*Shaylynn

Playing Chicken at the park wasn't such a good idea:/ Kenadie was hanging out with friends on Friday evening when she decided to play chicken. Well.. she fell and landed with her arm straight. She said it hurt, but she was to cool to cry:) Brandt brought her home and her elbow was on the side of her arm! Sam took her to St. George to the emergency room. I stayed home with the other kids. (Plus I can't stand seeing my kids like that) They determined they would have to do surgery on Saturday. They came home and said they would call Saturday morning. We went to the Lee Family Christmas Party from 9-11 that morning and had a blast! Then went to pick up Shaylynn and headed to St. George. They were waiting for her and they were ready to go. Kenadie was nervous, but she didn't cry:) The surgery took about 2 hours. She recovered for a while and we came home. She hasn't went back to school yet, but she is going tomorrow! Oh.. She broke the cap off her elbow and they pinned and wired it back in place. I'm so proud of Kenadie for how brave she was! She is the first one in our family to break something! (That includes Sam and Me) She deserves a brownie button:)

It is soooo hard to see your kids (Or nieces and nephews) in pain:'( I am glad Kenadie is doing better and hopefully this will be the LAST broken bone in your family:)

Poor girl! My niece did the exact same thing to her elbow, pins & all. Her wasn't an unfortunate "chicken" accident, though. It was a fall from the monkey bars. Hope Kenadie's feeling better soon!
