We've had our downs
We've had our ups
We've had our downs again
And through it all, we see His protective hand. Miracles do happen. Prayers are answered. Angels walk among us.
We're all alive and okay. That is what matters.

I have nothing to say except that I'm sorry and you know where to find me if you need anything....
ReplyDeleteOh, that and B looked absolutely SMASHING in his tux! Lucky girl that date of his was.

B makes me smile....i am grateful for your testimony as well. what happened with the burb? who was driving? when did levi have a seizure? too many questions....it doesn't really matter...just glad levi is doing better and whoever what driving was in that big thing and B is such a good boy.
ReplyDeleteWhat an incredible weekend to have to go through. My mom told me about the accident and it just made me cry. I've never been in one quite that extreme, but I've been in my fair share and it's AWFUL. Por Brennen. I'm so glad everybody is ok, and I hope Colin will be 100% ok soon. Big cars are the best, they keep you safe.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful prom dinner table! That's so fun to be able to do that, but wow, what a weekend. Sending you our love.
So many questions!! I'm going to look on facebook and see if you ever sent me your phone number. Do you mind a crazy woman calling? But in case you haven't... what happened?! I am SO glad to hear that everyone is okay.
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone. Sorry I've not gone into more detail. More later. We're all alive and okay. Fog over the brain so not thinking clearly right now. The storm has passed and now we are walking out our front door so to speak assessing the damage and where to start cleaning up first. Kids are emotionally shook up, bruises, stiffness, soreness, etc. They are each reacting in their own way. Interesting to watch. Wishing my arms and lap was big enough to hold them all. Much easier now that we're home from the hospital. I'll go into more detail on all these ups and downs later this week.
ReplyDeleteSo Savannah is looking at blogs with me and when we got to the picture of Clifford she said, "That looks like a pretty crash." I paused and turned to her with some bewilderment. She sensed her misstep and said, "um....he he.....a pretty GOOD crash."
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad everyone is alive, that was a serious collision!
oh no...b was driving? well, i can be patient (not) and wait for the post...or i can call k and find out. ;)
ReplyDeleteMay God continue to bless and protect your family. I am sorry to see Clifford demolished...but I am glad he helped protect your family. I hope we live to see the day of "The Return of Clifford" or Clifford II or "Son of Clifford". Your prom...I mean Brennans prom lookd absolutely lovely, the food, your home, the kids...and of course Brennan - hansome as usual. I called you this morning..please let me know hoW I can help you..rides, babysitting, errands, food...whatever you need.
ReplyDeleteSo glad that everyone is doing okay, or at least better now.
ReplyDeleteClifford didn't fare so well, did he? Poor Clifford. I'm grateful that he was such a tough and strong thing to protect his precious cargo!
ReplyDeleteWow! And Wow! again. I'm glad you're all okay. Your attitude/testimony is reassuring and inspiring.
ReplyDeleteSometimes there are just a lot of hard things at once, aren't there?!
Natalie, Brennan lookes SO handsome in his tux. You can't fool me that it is only girls that like to dress up. He had a great time and the group he was with were all great. Good good kids.
ReplyDeleteThank you Natalie. Yes, I do know where to find you. You're wonderful!!
Misty, We can feel everyone's prayers and know that we are being blessed. I'll go into more detail on my blog as to what happened when I can. Just making sure all things are in place legally before I talk about things. It wasn't our fault in any way shape or form but just being safe.
Ginna, I've never been in a car accident so it was pretty traumatic for us all. Not something I want to ever go through again. I'm all for big cars. I told The SM yesterday that I want him to sell his car and get a big vehicle. Don't be surprised if you see us all driving dump trucks now. :)
I had a blast putting together that dinner and having the prom group show up. Can't wait to do it next year!
Gerb, Call me later today after kids are off to school and I'll fill you in. We're feeling very blessed and grateful that we are all okay. Saying lots of, "I love you" to each other.
Jody, Mr. C was able to come home and enjoy a special dinner someone ordered us ALL THE WAY FROM IL.!!! You are wonderful!! Auntie Jo!
Melissa, LOL! I think Clifford would prefer a 'handsome' crash. :D Yes, all alive and okay. Thank goodness. It could have been so much worse.
Misty, Yes, Mr. B was driving. It's going to be awhile before he feels up to getting behind the wheel again. We're all a bit touchy in the car now.
Michelle, Thank you a million times. When we know what we need and what to ask for you can bet we'll be calling. :)
I'll be honest, it was kinda my prom right? I got to feel the excitement of getting a tux (not a dress but getting a tux was fun) and buying all the froo froo for the dinner.....seeing all the couples walk up to the house in their finery....it was a blast! You were right, having the dinner here was way funner!!
Chastina, Yes, we are all doing better and we are grateful as well. It could have turned out so differently.
Tamra, No, Clifford didn't. We said our good bye's yesterday. Mr. C took his license plates as a momento. :)
Anaise, Apparently the Lord thinks we're capable of getting through this so not much more one can do but roll up our sleeves and get to work. :) Actually, it is much easier to get through something like this when everyone is alive and okay. I don't even want to imagine how it could have gone in both vehicles! Not just ours. The other vehicle no one was hurt seriously either. Such a blessing!!
Wow! I've been out of cyberworld lately - it looks like you've been through a lot lately! I'm so sorry. I'll pray for your family. ...so glad everyone is ALIVE and that there were some good memories in the mix to soften the sorrows.
ReplyDeleteCorine, It's been crazy around here! See? You take your eyes off things for one second and it all falls to pieces. :)
