Our friend Carrie!


Cruz and Alex putting sticks in the slats of the deck!

Cruz and I spent the afternoon with our friend Carrie, her two dogs Body and Harley, and Terena and Alex. We had a great time, but I am so sad for Carrie under the circumstance it had to happen. Carrie was hit on her road bike (by a car) about 2 weeks ago. She has broken several bones in her pelvis and her tail bone. The car was going about 50 mph and if she would have been any further out in the intersection her injury could have been far worse. Carrie is amazing. She is up on crutches and moving around, probably a little too much, but it can be so hard to sit still. Carrie wishes that people would be more aware of bikers. Her attitude is amazing! I want to help her get her message out because really she wants people to learn from her experience!!

Cruz and I brought sandwiches in and Cruz enjoyed sharing his PB&J sandwich with Body. Cruz had a blast with the dogs. It was great to be able to chat with Carrie and have an enjoyable lunch out on on the deck! Terena and Alex came over after Alex woke up from his nap and the boys enjoyed interacting with each other!



None of us were sure what happened here. All of a sudden Cruz just started this terribly sad cry. He got over it quickly but I don't really know why the sad face, it was pretty sad!!!


Thanks to Carrie, she took this picture! I hardly have any pictures of Cruz and I, so thank you Carrie!!
