in two directions

So let me tell you all about our fun memorial day. It was great we went camping and took the camper which was so much nicer than sleeping in a tent. We also took the 4 wheeler and set out for a great weekend of camping, which broke down the second day. the first day went off without a hitch and we had a great time. the second day, poor Dakota he always get hurt camping, He put his bare feet in what he though was dirt turns out the boys had dug out the fire pit and put it next to the pit. Well it still had some hot coals in it and burnt Dakota's feet. luckily we were camped next to a creek so he kept his feet in the water. We tried to go off and explore but had to stop at the river frequently to put Dakota's feet in the water to ease the pain. He said " I thought this was going to be a fun camping trip" poor guy. His feet blistered and look pretty sad to this day still. The next day was spent getting ready to go home. We decided if we went home early we would beat the rush of emptying the trailer and the kids were done and were ruining the fun of camping we we packed up and left early. Well as we pulled out of the camp stop we heard something dragging. it was the sway bar it had fallen off. we figure that was the most exciting thing that would happen so off we went. As we were driving down the highway 65 mph we heard this horrible noise like a flat tire. that I can handle. wrong next thing we know the front suburban tire flew off and we were going in two different directions the tire flew across the highway barely missing a jeep driving the opposite way and then as we finally come to a stop an abrupt tip. we were sitting on the inside of the wheel. luckily nobody was hurt it could have been alot worse. we figured we would just get the tire put it back on and be on our way. Nope it stipped the lug bolts and ovaled out the rim of the tire. there we sat. 9 of us because we had Alex's friend with us. We called insurance but of course our policy doesn't cover towing. so we called a man in the ward who owns a towing company and he set out to get us. in the mean time Alex's friend called his dad and he came and took most of us home except Dan and braxton. Dj and I headed back up to sit with dan and drive him home when the tow truck showed up. well 2 hours later he shows up, loads the truck and goes to hook up the trailer. nope the ball didn't fit his hitch so he had to have the owner bring out a different ball in order to tow the trailer home. 45 min later we were on our way. I guess this makes up for us having a quiet mothers day. usually this kind of thing happens then. We have decided that if it had not been for having the trailer on we probably would have flipped resulting in an injury I am sure. So now we are a little nervous about taking the trailer on our trip. We will definatly check the tires to make sure they are on tight. We head out on the 9th of june and can't wait.
So a quick update. after a couple of tries DJ has passed his drivers test and now has a legal license. he has been driving one day and has already got lost and had to call for directions. should prove interesting.
