{Partyin' Christmas-style and a double fracture forearm-style}
Tonight while we were down the street at the Hite's Christmas Party, the Benham and Glauser kids were having their own Christmas party at our house. The party at the Hite's was winding down when Ricky got a call from Trent telling him that Gavin had broken his arm after falling off the handlebars of my exercise bike. We grabbed our friendly neighborhood Physician's Assistant, Lex and his wife, Jilyn and went home to survey the damage. Lex took one look at it and said, "Yep, it's broken" and we rushed to the ER.

The x-ray revealed a break in both the ulna and radius. Gavin was a brave champ the whole time. Thanks to some powerful meds through the IV, he didn't feel much and they set his arm and had him all fixed up in just a few hours.

Here he is being super-brave while "Patrick" removed his IV. Gavin loved Patrick so much that he named his Lion stuffed animal after him.
