When it rains it pours

 This weekend was an interesting one!  Our poor little Ashlyn got a boo boo.  She fell while playing with friends, and broke her arm right at her elbow. Bad

 We made a trip up to the Children's Hospital, and at 11:30 at night Ashlyn went in for surgery.  They fixed her arm, and put three pins in it to keep it in place.  Ouch.  Ash has been so brave and strong.

 This is the morning after her surgery.  She had eggs, pancakes, and an oreo shake for breakfast! (dad helped her order)

 I love this hospital.  They take such good care of the kids and their families. If all we ever have to visit this hospital for is broken bones I'll be happy.  There are lots of very sick little kids here.  Ashlyn is done with school for the year.  She gets her hard cast on in about a week, and until then has to take it really easy.  We haven't told her yet that she can't go skiing this year. 

Here is the x-ray showing the pins.  Ashlyn is one tough cookie.  Opps. Chocolate chip cookie, she says.
