Yes it's true. Nate and I have survived marraige for 4 years. This year funds were low so, we took a trip to the in-laws cabin. Things were great until day #2. We decided to take Nates anniversary gift (110cc dirt bike) out for a test run and I was going to learn how to ride it. After what seemed like hours of looking for a good spot, we finally found one, geared up, and headed for the top of the mountain.
Once at the top, Nate gets a phone call from a client. Well, while I was trying to figure out who would be calling him, I caught Malakai placing his hands on the tailpipe of the dirt bike (ouch!!!). Of course, it all seemed to move in slow motion. I tried stopping him but it was to late. The damage was done. We turned around and headed back down the mountain. To make matters worse, while almost at the bottom, Boris stops dead in his tracks (Boris and Tasha were chasing after Nate on the dirt bike), turns around, looks at me, and falls to the ground. He was so exhausted he couldn't go any further. So, with a screaming child on the 4 wheeler I tried getting Boris to his feet again and nudged him down the mountain. Now some of you are probably wondering why I didn't just pick him up and put him on the back of the 4 wheeler. Boris weighs close to 120 lbs., picking him up was out of the question! He was so tired he couldn't even jump into the back of the truck (Nate had to lift him).
Now that were home, Malakai's wounds are slowly healing but Boris is even slower at recovering.
