For those of you who know us well or follow our blog closely know how we are truly a football family! Well on Friday I took Carter and the two of us picked out the boys' new cleats for football season. Carter needed them for his camp this week, but truly we always buy them early so they can break them in. So on Saturday Carter got the idea that they should put them on and go out in the front yard with Dad and do some drills- great idea!! Now you must know that the cleat style that we picked is new to Will. They have removable cleats that you can screw in (thus making the cleat last a bit longer) but also makes them EXTREMELY slippery on a solid surface! Carter discovered this a couple of years ago when we started buying them for him- and also had a couple small spills- but this story is more intense!! Anyway, so they are doing the drills and the boys are running at full steam when they run out of grass and Will steps on the driveway- and BOOM!!! Slips and skids on his knee/arm and whips his head and slaps the cement with it! Sounds great doesn't it? But after a quick trip to the Dr office and a lot of ice- it has pretty much melted away! But boy did it scare us!! It was a nasty one! But at least we got summers first injury out of the way!

Okay, I was terrified just reading that post, even though I knew he was okay! That sounds SO scary!!! Poor Will! :( I'm glad he's all right. That looks painful!
Glad he is fine. It is not his first head injury though. Hee hee.
