Our 2nd Totalled Car of the Year

Last Friday night I was at home making cookies with my friend Jess...The boys (our husbands) were in Warsaw coaching a Varsity football game. All of a sudden Jess and I heard a crash...We finally realized it was coming from outside and went out the front door. The scene before use was this...

Apparently a silver Jeep Liberty had SMASHED into the front of my PARKED car. As Jess and I walked out the door of my house and saw this scene, we also saw a man running down the alley, away from the scene of the accident. The next problem we encountered was the location of Jess's car. Originally she was parked right behind me...when we came out of the house, her car was nowhere to be seen. We thought it was stolen! Turns out, her car had been hit by my car and rolled 100 feet down the street!

The back of my car...The front of Jess's car..
How far away from my house Jess's car rolled...

How close Jess's car was from hitting the next car on the street...


Turns out that they car that hit us was driven by a drunk driver...and it was stolen! Here are some more pictures of the damages...


They caught the driver who fled the scene...he is being charged with theft. Our car ended up being totalled, and so did Jess's. We are both getting new cars!

With the help of a few of our 'boys', we started working on our patio. We dug out a section of grass in front of our pond and started making a patio.



We had this much of the patio finished, when we got a call on a Saturday in June...we had a showing the following Wednesday. We HAD to get the patio finished! The problem was each day was over 90 degrees...We got it done!
