While Art was warming up the car, I looked for my sweater. As soon as I found it I flew out the door and as I was rushing down the stairs...BAM! I fell. More like, I fell...rolled...and landed on my side. As I got up my toes were immediately tingling and that was it for me. The pain was excruciating. Instead of going to 7-11 we headed to the ER :( The good thing is that they immediately gave me meds to TEMPORARILY take the pain away. The bad thing is that I was there for about 14 hours! After they did some x-rays it turned out my ankle was fractured. I did not need the x-rays to know that! The swelling and bruising was enough for me to know! I never knew there were so many shades of purple! There is also a mean cut on the my left side of my leg...not cute!
I have to keep a splint on my ankle for about a week or two. I've pretty much had my leg elevated all day today...not fun.
Thankfully I have a sweet husband who takes care of me so well. However, he has a bad habit of photographing or, in his words, documenting my pain!
Here are some shots he took when we got home.
Please excuse my makeup-less sad face and the x-mas pj pants, they were the only clean pants I had at the moment and they are the ones I went to the ER with :P At least I had just waxed my legs!
Also excuse the funky foot! It's swollen, bruised and not doing well :(
I will be returning e-mails within the next couple of days.
I will get to the engagement sessions post as soon as I feel a bit better.

nataly: wow. same exact thing 2 years ago. exactly. you even look the same in the little casty deal :)
except, right as i started to heal up, 3 months later, on my birthday, i reenacted the whole scene again. then i was had to start using crutches.
the worst part is that your ankle will be extremely vulnerable for years. remember that!
peace <3 k.
oh no! I hope you feel better soon!
I am so sorry to hear this I hope you feel better soon:)
Oh Nat, I'm so sorry! I will pray for you. I feel your pain I was down with my foot days before Christmas. I am sure you won't let this slow you down too long, your way too busy of a girl. :) Will you still be able to go this weekend? I hope to see Art pushing you around in a stylish wheelchair. Maybe you can decorate it with some bling and let people know that nothing stops the Lemus family! LOL!
Oh no! That is horrible!!!
At least your toes look cute :)
Hopefully you won't have to be in the split too long!
Big hugs
xoxo

Hey girl! I hope you're feeling better! That ankle does not look good, I hope the swelling has gone down.
