Lake Powell

Ahhhhhhh! This is what I want to scream sometimes since being a Wilson, I swear the Wilson family has some of the worst karma! Unfortunately, this does include Me & Brandon in our trip to Lake Powell. I will try to make it short... First we were out boating & Brandon was sitting on the back of the boat being the "rope boy" when we noticed that an important little object we call "wedding ring" was missing from his finger, we had noticed it that morning so we knew it had been since on the ski boat we looked around & quickly realized it was a gonner. The next morning the boys decided to go out early and go wake boarding while the water was still smooth, Brandon wasn't going to go, then at the last second he ran down the stairs, threw on his swimsuit & jumped on the boat... BIG mistake. He was out on the wake board & of course starts jumping the wakes & his last jump he jumps too far & lands on flat water & he said he felt his knee twist and bend in ways it shouldn't. It was all over from there. I was on the house boat waiting for them to come back, the next thing I see is Brandon limping up the hall in pain, he told me the story and said he would be OK to finish out our trip and wait until we went home to see a Dr. Once we got home we went to the Dr. and had an MRI that shows he has completely torn & detached his ACL, fractured the top of his Tibia, and torn cartliage in his L knee, so tomorrow morning he goes in for his third surgery to his left leg in less than a year & a half! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, I checked my bank account once we got home and noticed that we had over $200 in debit card fraud while we were gone too! I know it could be alot worse but, HOLY CRAP all within a week give us a freaking break! Regardless of the bad luck we had a blast in Powell! Thanks Shelley & Joel!
Hanging out on the back of the Boat, getting ready for our Lake Bath! Who really needs a clean shower anyways?

Shaving in the lake. Good thing we brought his razor... has anyone ever seen a Wilson that hasn't shaved in a few days? Nope, cause you had mistaken them for a werewolf!

My poor little POO POO! Brandon was pretty bummed about injuring his knee! (Under the towel he is holding a bag of frozen hash browns, trying to bring the swelling down)

Is something missing here? If you look close at the ring finger you will see there is a white tan line where Brandon's wedding ring should be. If you take a closer look to the bottom of Lake Powell you will find his wedding ring there... Good Luck with that!

Brandon is such a sport! I wanted some pictures taken of us while we were in Powell together, so Brandon actually hobbled out to a spot & did it! I felt bad cause I knew he was in pain with his knee but he didn't complain much. ( This is him hobbling slowly back to the boat, he is laughing cause I went to grab the camera & make fun of him!)
