The Ice Skating Accident




Finally... here is the long anticipated (hee hee) video of Eryn's ice skating accident. She was doing so great - all the girls were. They caught on so quickly. They didn't stay by the wall for long. After only one lap, they were skating like a bunch of pros! There were a few falls, but nothing major... that is until about 20 minutes before the skating session was supposed to end. Then it happened. The fateful accident which caused a broken wrist! She has had her cast on for 2 weeks now with 1-2 weeks left. She is getting a little bit tired of it. She says it itches (but you can't stick anything down inside to scratch, due to infection risk). Showering is a pain, since we have to put plastic bags over the cast... and I have to help her wash her hair. Fun times!

Oh my goodness! I cringed watching the crash. It made me want to cry and scoop up my Eryn for a big hug. That looked so painful, but the tough girl just stood up like nothing happened. OUCH!!!!! I love the pics of her with her cast. Too cute!
