Hazards of BMX

On the 15th Carter had a race for BMX indoor. He has been loving it. He was excited to try out his new clips and see how they helped him. We made the cold drive to Rad Canyon. 

He was doing well and then all of a sudden didn't make a turn and crashed head on into a cement wall with another kid. Carter hopped right up but not before my heart sank in my chest. He was slightly delirious as he tried to find his bike and get back on his bike. 

He came over and showed me this....his helmet cracked down the middle from the crash. I am SO thankful for helmets. He had a headache for a few days but didn't seem concussed and was doing fine. 

We let him race again a few days later at the Gold Cup race and he took 3rd. He did very well and it helped that he had some fans there to cheer him on!

Thanks grandparents!!! your support means so much to us!
