*My first car accident.

Yeah, that's right. Last night, after church, all five of us and one of Morgan's friend.

Driver in front of us (left hand lane), turning without a signal and better yet - no turning lane! We tried to slow down to get around her after she did finally turn, but that didn't happen. The bottom of her car tore up buy a small curb median and her tail end went up and we hit her square in the middle of her trunk. The driver front side took most of the hit. Both airbags opened and we were all pretty shaken.

Like I said, my very first accident (the kids first, also). We didn't get hit any other time, from being parked on the highway. The cops and paramedics came, we called Ally's mom and a friend of ours from church was driving on the same road at the same time. He swerved from hitting us then stopped because he saw everything. The kids stayed in his car and our friends waited with us and then drove us home.

My little van is totaled. We all went to the chiroprator this morning, everyone woke up sore. The kids stayed home and we rested the day away. Execpt for Pete who had to go into work, late though! I work tonight, too - but not till 10pm. Pete did get the most bruises - on his thigh from the steering wheel-tilt lever and his wrists from the steering wheel and airbag.

We are all fine and I thank God for that! We were on a few prayer chains and I thank our friends for that!
