Bye, Bye Car!

Well...we had to say "bye, bye" to our car this week.  A car pulled out in front of us Tuesday afternoon while Mallory and I were driving down HWY 10.  We weren't hurt, but the car was totaled.  Luckily the inurance company valued the car a lot higher than we expected so we aren't in a bind. We acutally may end up being able to save the money each month that was going to the car payment! 

Mallory's funny moment surrounding the car wreck came the next morning when she said, "We had car wreck. We're ok. Mommy's car has balloon!" It didn't dawn on me that she would think of the airbags as balloons. She also managed to make it out of the wreck and onto the curb with french fries still in her hands. :)

Poor car.  Poor stiff neck.  Poor Mallory for her brief scare (though she quickly got over it). Poor Coach purse that is now covered in a frosty from Wendy's that I never got to eat.

  1. Sad. Sad. Sad. Sad.

    Someone pulled out in front of me when we lived in NC. It's so surreal that's it's all their fault and it impacts your life so hugely.

    Mallory's astute commentary is precious, as usual. I really am so glad y'all are ok. That's so scary, even when everything is ok.
