So the latest in the Hale's life... I started school two weeks ago, I am already dying for the end of the semester- how bad is that? Steve is still stayin really busy at work and trying to get ready to take the GMAT.
Over Labor day weekend we went for a hike with our friends Amber and Scott (the same hike that we went on with Steve's mom in March when I was miserable...) This time went a lot better than the first time. We started early so we stayed cool an dwe just had a lot of fun... For the first half of the hike anyways! When we got to the falls we got in the pools and were swimmin around to cool off and there is a nifty little rock slide. Steve and I went to go down it, and he went down just fine and then I stood up to go down and I took one step and my feet came out from under me and the next thing I knew I had landed right on my chin and cheek. All I could think about as I was lying on this rock was I just got a Traumatic Brain Injury, I guess that's the future SLP in me... Anyways it was a pretty nasty fall, I cut my chin and almost immediatly my chin started to swell up. Luckily, an ER doctor came over and gave us some ice and told us to super glue my chin closed! The worst part was we had to hike 3 miles out to get back to our car, but really I was just happy that I wasn't on my way to the ER!

My chin was pretty purple and blue for a couple of days, I really looked like a battered woman! Sorry about the drugged look on my face in these pictures, it was right before we went to bed and I was TIRED!
