Bounce house anyone?

What a day....Yesterday was kids free day at Kangaroo Zoo. It is this place that has all these bouncy houses, slides, mazes and just lots of fun things for kids...and adults that have to help their kids play on.












Cayman and I went with Gary, Stephanie, Carson and Mckenna and we were having a great time. Gary took Cayman on some the tall slides that I couldn't carry her up on and then Cory showed up. Yipee... now he could take Cayman on these. It was really tough trying to hold on to your kid and pull yourself up to these big slides. We decided to have a race on the one and he went down but I missed the last step or something and fell down the back side that I had just pulled myself up on. Needless to say I felt my left ankle twist something wicked and about passed out. Not only did it hurt like crazy... I had to get through the maze to get back out of the bouncy toy. I had to climb over things, squeeze through tunnels, and then slide out onto the floor on my butt. What a nightmare. Cory came over and helped me up and then just laughed at me because I hurt myself on a bouncy toy....Stupid me. I couldn't put any pressure on my foot and it hurt so bad to try to walk that I got in to see my doctor and he had me get x-rays. It was not broken but swollen and sprained pretty bad. He put a compression wrap on it with a nice PINK ace wrap. I can't believe how bad it hurts.










I am just Icing it and elevating it. Kinda hard to rest with a little one running around. It is just my luck that this would happen to me. I don't really like playing on these toys and Cory usually takes her...but when it was FREE, I couldn't pass up taking Cayman for she likes to play. Freak things happen to me all the time. Crazy huh?
