♥ Our poor van...

Downtown there are two huge flags! I love them! I think they're at least 10 feet across!

This is my knee today! Fabulous isn't it! Not quite as swollen but yesterday Olivia said, "Mommy look it's a rainbow!"

and I now have a nice blister and bruises on my neck... It hurts to turn my head but at least I know it's healing (tight as a drum)... Joe and I are sore in so many places now it's crazy... Joe is finding bruises all over now also from the seat belt.

our poor van!

Isn't the wheel nice?

the inside... airbags and there is no longer a console... it busted in half and is dangling somewhere down there!

even the roof is dented...

There was absolutely no damage anywhere close to where the kids were! I'll take that as a small miracle another foot and it would have gotten Emma! Even the automatic sliding door shown below still works. However the front axle is toast!

What a blessing that none of the kids were hurt. I'm sorry you and Joe got banged up and your van is toast. Looking at those pictures, it is amazing that everyone is okay!
