Thanksgiving in Kanab











Chris and I came down to Kanab to spend Thanksgiving with Jim and Pam this year. It was just the four of us but it was great. Jim made some amazing biscuits, Pam made the salad, and Chris and I made the mashed potatoes. Someone in town deep fried the Turkey with a Honey Mesquite Glaze. It was a great dinner. We had pumkin pie afterwards for desert. Chris and I always enjoy coming down and spending time with his parents. They are so much fun to be around and they always make such great dinners.
Friday night we went up to Three Lakes where we met up with my Dad and his family. Jim and Pam cooked venisan stew. It was great! We made a nice fire and ate together around the fire. The smoke seemed to love me for some reason, so I had to keep getting up and moving. So that made it hard to stay very long but it was a lot of fun to be up there. I always love just being at Three Lakes.
We saw Madagascar 2 at the local theater. It was nice to see Tara and her family. After that movie Tara and Amber came up and we watched Hancock. Its been a while since I have hung out with Amber, so it was great to see her again and hang out with Tara and her like old times.
Saturday Chris and Jim went up to Three Lakes to help my Dad unload two HUGE bales of hay. They were HUGE, each one was 2000 pounds! Then we watched Hancock again with Jim and Pam. (They didn't get to see it with us the night before). Then we took Mickie to the city park. I sat in a chair wrapped up in blankets and Chris, Jim, and Pam through the frisbee and a ball to Mickie. She loved it. Here are some pictures of the Park.

Lovesac

The people from Lovesac have been absolutely awesome. When I was in the hospital they sent me a dozen red roses. They are also going to furnish our new living room with all Lovesac furniture. Shawn has been so great. I just wanted to give them a shout out and tell them how much it has meant to me. This accident has been so hard to deal with, with the multiple injuries and worse reliving the accident in my dreams. I appreciate Lovesac's concern and willingness to help me out.

Check out their website:

Last Friday Lovesac came out and we did the shoot for news video release. (I probably didn't get that term right). Anyway, it was great to work with Brad and Nick. They did a great job. The rough draft of the shoot is posted on Youtube. Here is the link:

FoxNews

Yesterday I received a call from Foxnews the National Company. They wanted to interview me. So this morning they sent a limo to pick me up and took me to a studio downtown Salt Lake. It was crazy. A makeup lady came in and just started going at it. They hooked up a mic to my shirt and a mic in my ear. I had to stare at the camera the whole time. It was pretty wierd. It was fun to do though. It takes everything out of me to get up and do things like that but it helps turn something so terrible for me into something a little fun.

This is the FOXNEWS one. Once I get a better video I will post it up here.
