Anthony's Accident

For those of you who haven't heard, Anthony had an accident at work last week. He was walking out to the fire line with the fire hose and wasn't ready when it turned on and the nozzel swung up and hit him in the face. He spent 4 hours in the ER and have to have 8 stitches to sew his lip up, but it looks like all of his teeth are okay. We know this could have been much worse so we are very thankful he wasnt hurt too badly. His lip was really swollen the first few days..I think these pics are taken on day 4. He had his stitches taken out today and will see the dentist soon to evaluate his teeth. Luckily, he hasn't been in much pain either, but eating is definitely a task!

Doesn't actually look too bad now, scary how much worse it could have been!
PS. Gavin and Papa's eyes look just the same color in this picture! (Schars are still brown though)

Eating - like when Ry broke his jaw! Tough to get enough decent food when you cannot chew. Awful.

We are glad it was not worse...those things happen.

Good luck at the dentist -
