Our Wreck!!! =o

on the way to dinner we were on a four lane highway with NO MEDIAN and we were in the inside lane. (we really do not like that road)
I was looking to our right at a car next to us thinking "man we are close." Well right about that time opposite of where I was looking (i was sitting in the middle seat w/ Eli next to me behind dad second row the girls in the third row) dad's window shatters !!! we were going about 40-55 mph glass goes flying everywhere! Maddie screamed, my head was turned so the glass hit the left side my face and stuck in me a lil. And in a split second I thought "what was that? O my gosh! that sounded like we got shot at!" I looked at Eli he was pulling lil pieces of glass out of the side of his face. I started doing the same thing and discovered I had some glass stuck in my neck and the left side of my face. I looked at dad still thinking we may have been shot at he was ok except at cut on his arm(another way God was good dad was right there his window shattered and all he had was a nick on his arm and he said his head felt like someone hit it w/ a baseball bat!!! GOD IS GOOD! ) . Daddy pulled over and I didn't really know what happened yet. Someone coming the opposite direction knocked off our mirror and it slammed into dad's window! I am telling you glass was all over the place all in our hair in our shirt, pants mom and I got some on our mouth powdered glass all over us (the window didn't break like it should have)! We got out Abby had her camera and we took picture so the event would be blogged! We then went to a car wash and dad vacuumed out the car (as best he could). Mom called a police. The cop came and was very nice looked things over and said he would let us know if anyone called. Because it happened so fast we don't even know what the other car looked like and they didn't come back! It had to be a truck or some sort of vehicle close the the size of our car. But the car next to us when it happened (that i was looking at and thought we were too close to) came to check on when we pulled over!
When we got home mom vacuumed us off. =P
So we are all good thank the Lord!
like mom said
"That could have been the end of us that quick! Guys this could have been so much worse!"

GOD IS SOOOOO GOOD!!!

Seconds before the hit!

What in the World??

Also the window did not break right so powdered glass flew all over us.
(which is why mom vacuumed us off)

This was me main injury just a lil cut that the glass stuck into!
everyone else got nicks and scratches but
for some reason they did not get photographed.

Daddy's cut

The really nice cop!

He was telling Abby he got a camera for Christmas too! =)

Limboing under the car wash sign passing the time!

Thank the Lord for His Abundant Mercy and Protection!

Psalms 4:8
In peace I will both lie down and sleep; for you alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety.

And call upon me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify me.
