What not to do while reading a map....
Ah...I remember the day vividly. The kids and I were driving home from the library on December 15, 2007. Alycia had to do some research for her school science fair project. I had the feeling that I should take a different road back home, but ignored the prompting. As I slowing down to a light that had just changed. BAMM! What the heck! I hit the brakes so I didn't hit the person in front of me. Then BAMM again! I checked to see if my kids were okay. Alycia complained that her neck hurt. Joseph was fine...he had on his puffy coat and was playing his gameboy. I got out to see what caused this car accident. A 17 year old girl driving a Suburban decided to read a map while driving. She totaled the pickup that hit my van (twice) and almost totaled the van. I'm thankful the damage wasn't worse... Alycia and I had to go to plenty Physical Therapy sessions and we weren't able to do much for quite a while and see several specialists for the discomfort. So when you think of reading a map while driving...remember ...this young lady totaled a truck, caused over $11,000 damage to my vehicle, paid additional $ for componsation and most likely will be uninsurable.

New ward...week 2
Our stake recently re-aligned our ward boundaries, so this was our 2nd week in our "new ward." Today, just before Sacrament started the Bishop and his counselors came to our bench and welcomed us and greeted us. After they left Joseph asked Brent the following question.."Did we get kicked out of our other ward?"
