Our wreck

Here are our kids in the Young's van while the guys were emptying out our truck of all our belongings. It was so cold compared to California, and the kids were freezing. No one had their sweaters since they took off with the truck before we could get anything out of it. The kids all took it pretty well. Lizzie is the only other one besides me (Tiff) that had any visible injury. She had her fingers in her mouth when we wrecked and her teeth scraped one of her fingers. She is so determined to suck something that she changed to her thumb for the time being until her finger heals.



Our poor car. It will probably be considered a total loss and we'll be back in the market for a new car. We are so very, very thankful that we all walked away from the accident with only minor hurts. Funny part is that the lady at the tow yard said the truck didn't look that bad. Right...if you only look at it from the front door towards the back. There is a dent just above the wheel well on the left side and that is it besides the engine area.

So glad you guys are okay!! Sorry about the car. That's a pain. Hope you can find another good one. Is Jacob okay? I thought he got whiplash.

We are praying for you! While, we did not have a car accident we are still having somewhat parallel experiances. BOTH of our cars decided to break down at the same time and we are trying to find two replacements. Right now we are borrowing a car from Gary's parent's so he can get to work and luckily we can walk to school. We love you and are so glad nothing too serious happened to you (poor Lizzie).

Jacob's neck does hurt him, but it's already getting better

That stinks Mary. We're thankful we at least have Jacob's car right now. Renting a seven passenger vehicle is too expensive! And in your case would be even harder. Hope you guys find something at a good price soon.
