My Aunt & Uncle from Philly were in town last weekend and the aliens and I spent all day Sunday with Dad & Mom, Auntie & Uncle. We spent the day cooking out at Mom & Dad's house (brats, venison steaks, burgers....yummy!) Dad's doing great. He still tires easily & those ribs are still causing a lot of discomfort but he's getting back to his old self.
I finally got to see the pics of the accident - WOW! You can see the fuel tank is just mashed. It looks like a crumpled wad of aluminum foil. It is only by God's Grace that no fuel spilled onto the accident scene (what with the downed transformer & natural gas main leak). There is nothing left of the steering column that had him pinned. You can see where the trailer tried to come through the back window of the cab.
I knew that Dad was a miracle from God but after seeing the pictures, I am more amazed than ever that he lived to tell his story. Then again, maybe that's why he's still here - to tell the story of how he SHOULD'VE died but God saved him.
My little stitched-up alien is doing fine, jumping around & being a dare devil. The pool party went off well, the kids that went swimming were throwing a beach ball back & forth to little alien so he got to join in a bit of the fun.

oOOoooOo is the venison you ate from the two deer you hunted down with your car??? hehehehe
I'm glad the little alien got to play around too. If your kids got good friends they always find a way to include them. Kids are cool. LOL
Glad daddy is still on the mend and doing good.
Yup another thing to thank god for, he obviously has a plan for your pops.
I don't like food much anymore but mmmmmmmm mmmmmmmm good that bbq sounds.
Brats do sound good right now.
Give dad hugs, (tender one's) but hugs from Texas
