Halloween Update

Thought I would post a few pics of everyone in their costumes. We met at Mamaw and Poppy's house before the girls headed out for trick-or-treating!

AB was Pocahontas. Pita was Bat Girl. And Weezy was a Pirate Wench.

For the group picture, no one was really interested in taking those Tootsie Roll Pops out of their mouths! And it was a very good thing the shirt of my convict costume was long because while I was squatting taking photos of the girls, I ripped those pants from stem to stern!
My brother, The Boss Man, and his wife, Prima Ballerina, took the cake with their costumes. A member of The Blue Man Group and a Vegas Showgirl!

Since yesterday was the two week anniversary of my not-s0-graceful plunge down the attic stairs, I thought I would give you an update on my lovely ankle. Thanks to the late President Lincoln, I now know what my problem was. Right place THEN stand firm. I always get those out of order!

  • Still swollen. Check
  • Nice bruise on top of foot. Check.
  • Matching bruise all along side of foot. Check.
  • Lovely bruise on back of ankle. Check.

But I can walk and only with a slight limp.

Poor Woody!! Don't worry, you'll be back in those new Danskos before you know it:)

I think it is SO cool that everyone in your family dressed up for Halloween! Sorry about your pants...but, you're right, it would have been a lot worse if the top wasn't so long! Bwahahahaha!

Suz - Yes, they are lovely. They are going from your basic black to a lovely mixture of purple, red, blue, and green.

Big Hair - And I had on polka dot underwear!!

Desert - Thanks. I'm trying to keep my support boot on - I am still trying to make it to Utah before the next job starts!!
