I slammed on my breaks, but it was too late and we hit the big yellow Ford 350 truck in front of us. Scary! (Nic was at home with the three bigger kids.) Holly was in the passenger seat – she said she is fine. Aubrey and Molly were in the back. They started crying right away, but were not hurt other than small abrassions on their necks from their carseat seat belts. (When I first looked back at Aubrey, I thought her mouth was bleeding. It turns out, it was just red licorice that I saw in her teeth!) A paramedic checked them both out – said they looked fine, but to watch for anything unusual in the next 24 hours. My neck now hurts quite a bit (more so now than when we initially hit). This just compounded the troubles I already have in my neck I think. I called my chiropractor at home and he was kind enough to adjust me, even though it was a Saturday.
The driver of the yellow truck and his wife were very kind. (I think the collision may have bent their back bumber.) They had Irish accents, and were very good to work with
He told me and the officer that a line of cars in front of them had all stopped short. No one was issued a ticket.
The whole front of the van is munched. Undrivable. We will know more about what will be happening in regards to getting it fixed after the adjustor has a look at it on Tuesday.

Brooklyn had an invention fair at her school. Since she doesn’t like putting her shoes away when she takes them off, she decided to invent a robot to put them away for her.

The only thing cuter than Nic helping the kids make valentines for their friends…

is the little scene Nic suprised me with on my side of the bed.

One of Talmage’s favorite meals (and mine too) is homemade pigs in a blanket. This time when I made them, though, I guess I didn’t seal the edges of the dough well enough. They opened right up as they cooked in the oven, resulting in…pigs ON a blanket.

Remember that game Perfection where you have to fit all of the shapes in before it pops them all out? Yup - it's still around - still fun.
