Amber's broken ankle

This past Sunday night, Brittany's birthday, just before we were expecting the grandparents to arrive, I heard a few bangs on the front door. I opened the door and found Amber lying there in extreme pain. She was so pale and in shock and couldn't tell us what happened, except that her ankle hurt. What we learned later is that she had been reading and decided to escape outside. She decided to go out the window. Her room used to be in the basement and that was easy, but now her room is on the main level and her window is directly above her old window in the basement. She decided to proceed anyway and ended up slipping and fell into the lower window well. She fell about 6 feet. She had an X-ray the next morning and we found out it was broken.
Monday night, the day after she broke her ankle, Tyler made an obstacle course for us to do after our Family Home Evening lesson. Amber took part in it too!

We are on our way to the Doctor to get Amber's leg casted.

Emily and Brittany got Amber flowers!

Grading papers (Amber teaches 5th grade at Eastlake Elementary in Day Break) and enjoying her flowers from Emily and Brittany.
