The weekend befor Christmas we went up to burley To grandma Teals and had christmas Dinner and hung out and stayed the night at aunt carols..it was fun, but short and sweet!
Christmas Eve..We had recieved a phone call shortly befor we were to be on our way with our plans for the night, that Cory's dad Clayton had been trampled by a horse and was found out back in the pasture and was going to be rushed to the hospital in the ambulance... eeekk lets just say I drive fast as it is but I raced to the hospital...We got there in time to wait for all the exrays and cat scans to be done befor we could know much more, more family started to show up as we all gathered round trying to comfort clayton as he was in shock and all tied down... Finally forever later it felt like, we found that he had a little bit of bleeding on the brain as well as bruising, a broken clavical, 4 or 5 broken ribs in the back ahh, and then a partially collapsed long... they then began to stableize him and admit him after finding out he was some what alright cory stayed there by his side along with Maria as I headed out to Hyrum to go to Grandma Nielsens Party for a minute and get our baby and then Traxton and I ventured out to Smithfield for my moms Anual Christmas Eve dinner.. It was all very lovely, we opened up our gifts from eachother (the sybolings) we drew names this year, so I had Rad and Cory had Rayslyn.. Rad got 2 movies and a car washing kit, and then rayslyn got a hoodie and tanning lotion.. Emily had cory and he got a nice button up shirt and a hoodie, and then Nando had me and I got a $50 buckle card.. Whoo Hoo!! It was fun, it was hard not having Cory there to join us but he was where he needed to be right there with his dad... Afterwords Traxton and I headed up to the Hospital to see Grandpa, where cory's family was as well.. we all hung out for awhile, and then desided we best head home which was very hard to leave our dad/ grandpa that was laying there in pain..that night when we got home at 1 am Cory was determined we opened up our own personal gifts that were under our tree..So we did ha ha and Traxton was a trooper... Cory Got an Xbox 360 Call of Duty Edition, as well as clothes, a gear bag, and a bunch of other stuf..I got A helmet Cam, My ring and some fun cute other stuff as well.. Traxton Got lots of toys:)) Including a little skidoo snow sled that you pull from his Aunt Amy Mcphee..Don't worry he was more interested in the box rather than all the toys! The next morning we barley got out of bed so exhausted from the night befor, but we were up an at em on our way back out to My parents for Christmas morning to open up all our presents..Traxton go clothes, toys, a little kawasaki 4-wheeler..It was all great:)..I got an Ipod Touch, yay and cory was so excited he got a Klim Coat and a Helmet...We had got dad an Ounce of Silver that We had engraved on it #1 Grandpa (talk about someone that is impossible to shop for) We got mom a necklace, and a big file folder thing with a bag that you can put pics in the front of it!! It was a very good morning... Grandma and Grandpa came over about noon, and ya..:) We then found out Clayton had gone into surgery to get his Clavical fixed to help his long start to get better so we went over to the hospital for the rest of the afternoon, and hung out with the fam and clayton as he layed there ha..Traxton didnt quite know what to think about his grandpa not popping right on up and tickling him with his mustache, and all the cords that were attatched to him, he def wanted his grandpa better..but hey that night we even got free christmas dinner from the hospital so we had it right there in the hospital cafeteria:)... That Night my family came to see Clayton so we all hung out for a little while and then that was Christmas day!!
The next day traxton and I hung out up at the hospital and then that night all us kids (me, traxton, shane marisa, amy, cory) went out to Grandma clawsons she had her anual christmas party, where we of course ate food and played the useful gift game, we ended up with a movie pass, and a jamba juice pass it was awesome!! The next day, clayton got to come home..but still didnt quite feel up to par enough to have the nielsen christmas yet, so the next night we had Christmas..we had a big ol Ham for dinner it was yum and then we all opened presents on the bed in Dads room so he could enjoy it with us.. Cory got Klim Pants, SURPRISE he was very excited to now have the whole set up, and I got a cute pair of boots.. Traxton got some awesome Kids Pheonix that are magnetic to put on the fridge... Even tho it was late, it couldnt of been
Well I think i have done enough rambling...We had a very awesome and blessed family, I do believe there is such things as Christmas Miracles..One my own little family, The gladfelder Family, The nielsen Family, our Grandparents...that we can all still be together and share eachothers company, our health, and all of the above we couldnt be anymore blessed and I am so very greatful..I Love it!! Merry Christmas Everyone!!
