Ouch!!

Well, Clayton came hopping in (quite cute to see a grown man hopping, but I don't say these things aloud) on Saturday evening. He had been doing the thankless job of cleaning up all the trash accumulated on our lot after framing. When he was at the dump, he fell out of his truck and landed on sawdust that was slippery enough to make his foot fold under his leg. We had an eventful couple hours at the Instacare. Luckily, his foot was not broken, but definitely not feeling well. I took a picture, though it doesn't do justice to how gross it looks:) He is hobbling around quite nicely now. If there is any silver lining to this cloud, it is that at least it doesn't seem like he is too hurt and can hopefully get started on shingles and brick soon for our house!!

Dang! Topher has come home with a few of those. The bruising at the bottome of the foot always grosses me out.
