The curse of Lee's wedding...

Now don't get me wrong. Lee's wedding was wonderful. Lee and Aaron will live a long and happy life together. But it was a little cursed for the Joncas's.
Curse one:
Lee's bridal shower in Peoria.
Jeremiah got rearended in his squad car. (also this has happened to him again but that is a different story) It wasn't a horrible accident. The kid to hit him was like "are you going to give me a ticket?" Duh! Hit a cop car get a ticket! He got to come home early that night. I am glad he is fine.

Curse two:

Lee's bridal shower in Gilbert.

This was a shower for her from her good friend Hannah. I drove over and had to leave a little early to run and errand on the east side of town. I was driving down Gilbert road when I heard a funny noise. So I turned down my radio and then yes there is was again. I thought for a second and then it hit me... I have a flat tire!!!

So I pulled over and yes there is was way, way flat. So I called Jer and he being the super husband that we is, dropped everything got off work and rushed to my rescue...uuu not so much. His exact words were I can't help you. You are going to have to change it yourself. Really when I called I didn't think he would be able to help me. I was in Gilbert and he was working.

So I called Tim, my DPS brother and he called the Gilbert PD. About 5 minutes a police officer showed up to help me. By then I had called my sisters and my mom, got out the car jack and all the stuff to change the tire. For the record I know how to change a tire. I just didn't trust myself enough to drive on it. So the officer walked around for a bit, kinda looked like he knew what he was doing. Then when he thought I wasn't looking he radioed in for some help. Another officer showed up a few minutes later and the tire was change with in 5 minutes. I was so grateful!!

During this time I was supposed to be dropping off some vinyl to and old family friend. We were going to meet at the Applebee's. Well she didn't have a cell phone and obviously I was going to be late. So I called my mom, who called her mom, who told my mom she didn't have a cell phone, so my mom called Applebee's and a worker came out to get her to tell her that Tricia was on the phone, so she talked to my mom who told her the story, then she came and found me and my flat tire and finally got her vinyl :)

From the picture you can tell I ran over a huge piece of metal. And now 4 tires and $800 dollars poorer we have new tires.

Curse Three:

Lee's shower in Pinetop.

I had come up a few days before and Jer was coming up after he was done working. Well when the shower was all over I looked at my phone and there was a picture of a flat tire! Jer's car got one on the way up the mountain. Bummer!!! So again $200 poorer and we have 2 new tires. ( we had just replaced 2 of them not to long ago and were planning on getting the other ones later)

Curse Four:

Lee's wedding.

The week before the wedding we all had some form of the flu. So when Jer came down with it Friday night I figure it was just the flu. He was so sick the morning of the wedding but managed to keep it together for the sealing, barely. He was pretty pale and I was sure he was going to...well... you know blow chunks all over. I kept telling him to leave and we would all understand.

After the sealing we went back to the hotel and he thought he could sleep it off and make it to the reception. But when I called him he said there was no way he could make it. So I was on my own. I was chasing Bode and managed to stop for a minute to look at my phone. Jer text-ed me to tell me that he was at the urgent care and was waiting to be seen by the doctor.

So I rushed out of there to go be with him. They ran a few tests and they told us we needed to go the ER. Ok it had been such a long day. I walked out to the parking lot called my sister to pickup my kids and I lost it. Thank you again Jill for coming a getting my kids.

We went to the ER and were seen pretty quickly. Jer was very, very dehydrated and his ulcer was acting up. He has had ulcers since he was a teenager and every so often he has a complication. We where there until 1:00 in the morning.

My Dad, brothers, and brother in law where able to come give Jer a blessing. It was so wonderful to feel the peace of the priesthood that night. Thanks guys.

After this go with the ulcer Jer was told to go see a specialist. He did today. He is going to get an outpatient procedure done next month to check if the medicine they gave is working. We pray that it is.

Thank goodness we were able to make it to the reception in Peoria with out any "curse" activity.
