Evolution of a Black Eye.

Hi guys!

On Friday Adam, Francis and I drove to Tucson for the dust devil roller derby tournament. When we stopped to get gas and ran into the bathroom I got a few funny looks that totally confused me.

Then I remembered that I have a black eye.

The only other time I remember having a black eye was when I broke my nose when I was four. Stupid highway underpasses and patent leather dress shoes.

I am completely fascinated by the daily changes in color and even shape. Here are a few new pictures:




This one is from Saturday. It turned VERY DARK PURPLE on my eyelid. It was actually a very beautiful color, deep and reddish, like a plum.

This one is from Sunday. Yes. I am wearing the same stinky shirt that I wore on Saturday. WE wore black jerseys for all three games this weekend. The color became a little yellowish in some areas and now it is dark underneath my eye, not just on the eyelid.





And this was today. We were headed home from Tucson which is most of the reason I look so grumpy.




Last but not least, here is an adorable picture of autumn and I that was taken at the venue between out two games on Sunday.

I am hoping there will be pictures available for the bouts tomorrow, and I will tell you more about the weekend very soon.

Xoxo

Pictures of Autumn

Autumn is Crawling...er walking... like a cat. Silly little cutie.


Autumn is a future roller girl, no doubt! The first picture she is checking out my skates, and in the second picture she is trying on daddy's new helmet. Adam Also got new skates and will be reffing when he gets back to Albuquerque. I LOVE DUKE CITY DERBY! Also, the cute headband that autumn is wearing is available in our store http://AcrylicAndSteel.etsy.com Autumn is an excellent model.



Aren't autumns little teeth amazingly cute? I made the hat that she is wearing as a gift for someone.



Autumn loves her Paddington Bear Mobile. She looks like she is going to be blond, at least in the early years.


Autumn is modeling a bag for mommy. She looks so sophisticated. This cute outfit is from Grandma Ginny. This bag is in our etsy store. http://AcrylicAndSteel.etsy.com
