Crash and Burn

What do you get when you mix a BIG hill, and a scooter? The title says it all... CRASH AND BURN! Taylor thought it would be so fun to go down the big hill by our house on her scooter. Well... we were walking home from a friends house on Thursday, that just so happen to live at the top of this big hill, and Taylor was riding her scooter. I told her many times to "BE CAREFUL, you will get going VERY fast". Just before you go down the hill, there's a straight flat sidewalk, I was there... and Taylor was on her way down the big hill. I couldn't see her going down, but as I was walking I heard "AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" And then a loud screaming cry. I ran down the hill as best as I could pushing the stroller, and this is what I saw.......


I didn't see how she crashed, but I'm guessing her face caught her fall. The next morning her cheek bone was pretty swollen. Poor girl.


She got hole's in her new Easter clothes :(
Taylor says, she won't be trying that again, at least not any time soon.

awww!!! That hurts! I did that once as a kid and still haven't forgotten it. (maybe every kid has to try that out to learn the momentum lesson.)
