All the photos from Sylvie's Spooky Fifth

I thought with my bum arm that it would be a light year for photos at Syl's fifth.... but Trystan really stepped up!  From the balloon guy (freaky talented) to tattoos, to the piñata, to the dance party and finally cake, she got it all.  Click here for a slow view, or enjoy this slideshow.

This Sandy is no joke!

Big tree down across the street. Power out... But my girls are prepared!

FIVE!

Very successful 5th today!  Sylvie attended her Halloween-themed party dressed as a beautiful flower fairy - thanks for making a great costume, Grandma Lynne!

Trystan and Nisha helped me out - a LOT - with photos and video.  With only my dumb hand though it is going to take some time to get through them.

Here's the big moment...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SYLVIE (almost...)!!!

Shoulder surgery video

My surgeon gave me a dvd to take home.  Checked it out today - so interesting!  The inside of a shoulder looks nothing like what I expected.

Not for the weak-stomached...

Syl is worried about her dad

So she got up and made me this. Such a good kid.

Home and fine.

Surgery today went fine.  Took longer than expected... turns out I had BOTH a labrum tear and a rotator cuff tear, so they repaired both.  Good to be home.  Sings these days sure are something!!! Thanks for all the well-wishes.

A great day for pumpkin carving

We had a LOT on the to-do list this weekend, what with my pending one-armed month (surgery this Weds).  One of those things was pumpkin carving.  Trouble was, it was a gorgeous fall day.  So Sylvie and I decided to take the carving outdoors. Great call.

The original design specs

The end product - yum.

More in the October 2012 gallery.

My Pats Pal

I think she's actually figuring out the game.  When McCourty busted out a kickoff return for a TD today, Sylvie jumped off the couch and yelled the whole way down the field, ending in "TOUCHDOWN!!!"  A proud moment.  Then later on, in OT, she insisted I pause the game because she "really, REALLY" had to go potty.

Of course she also asked me what the Patriots did to be put in time out, so there are some details she hasn't picked up yet.

Very serious about staying in the lines...
