We spent as much time as we could on Lake Sammamish in September between the rain and smoke. Here are a few pics from our last couple outings:

Avery managed to flip Kieron out this time!

Our last day on the water we took Avery’s friend, Dalton with us. It ended up being a memorable trip. We tubed up to the north end of the lake and let the kids swim for a while.

All was well until Kieron slipped when he was jumping in one final time. He fell back and hit his head on the front seat of the center console and started bleeding badly. We sat him down and I put pressure on it while we drove ALL the way down the lake.

As I’m sure you know, head wounds bleed a lot so we were all trying to stay calm while Kieron soaked his towel and cried. Meanwhile, Dalton mentioned he was starting to get a pretty bad headache

We got the boat on the trailer and loaded up the kids. Then Dalton threw open the door of the car and threw up. Off we went to Urgent Care. I checked both Kieron and Silas in (Silas slipped off a kitchen stool earlier in the day and we almost brought him in but decided against it, so since we were already there we thought we might as well get them both checked out to be safe). Dalton threw up again in the Urgent Care parking lot. It was turning out to be quit an adventure!

Waiting for the doctor. In the end neither boy needed stitches! We weren’t surprised about Silas, but we were sure Kieron would need some. Turned out he ended up with what was more like road rash than a deep cut, it just looked worse. Happy boys!
