Life goes on

Well today was my day off as usual and it was a very busy but productive day. For the car to get fixed the insurance of the school bus required me to get to estimates for the work that needed done. So last night I took it to Larry H Miller at the auto mall and got it done. While we were waiting for them to do it Angie and I went to the mall with all five kids and picked out our easter outfits for the kids. My dad does this for us every year. He buys the kids and us all a new Easter outfit for easter sunday and then we usually get the kids pictures taken in them also. So today me, Ciaran, Cabhan, Dad, and Jessica all took my car down to provo to one of our patient's body shop and had him do the second estimate. Of course we did also stop at brick oven for lunch which made it worth the drive for sure. While eating lunch at Brick Oven Cabhan, for the first time, told me he had to go potty before going in his pullup. I was so excited and jumped up and probably scared everyone else in that part of the restraunt but thats okay.




After driving back from Provo me and jessica decided to go shopping to Walmart. Jessica stated she thought she could handle the shopping spree if she could get a wheel chair. She is having so much leg, hip and pubic bone pain that she cant walk. So she swallowed all of her pride and we got her a Motorized wheel chair. I couldn't believe that she actually did it so you have to know that she really must be hurting bad. Mom and Grandma Williams came down and met us at Walmart and we spent about two hours there I think but we all had a great time. After that Grandma needed to go to Costco to pick up her glasses so we all tagged along again and yes Jessica rode in a wheel chair around costco too.

Always look behind you




Well what an interesting morning it has been already and it is only noon. While on our way to Debbies house this morning I found myself behind a school bus in her neighborhood. "Look boys there is a school bus in front of us." and of course they both looked. The bus stopped infront of a house and so I stopped behind it to patiently wait while she picked up some school kids. Then all of a sudden the bus started backing up. I slammed on my horn and before I could put my car in reverse she slammed into the front of my car. The worst part is I had just pointed out to the boys that hurray look there is a school bus in front of us so they saw everything. Ciaran started screaming. None of us were hurt at all but a little shaken up. Still in the car tring to calm down Ciaran the bus driver came up to my window to make sure all was okay. Then she proceeded to say there isn't any damage so we can probaby just go. Me being the smart one said well let me get out and check it out because I couldn't see being hit by a bus and not having anything happen to my little santa fe. So I got and sure enough. It wasn't horrible but there was some damage done and I am so glad I didn't just say oh your fine just go ahead. Thanks to my dad always drilling us with never leaving the scene of an accident without calling the police. Thanks dad. So then we did the usual calling the police and filling out the reports. Ciaran started freaking out when he saw the police man. We are kindof bad because we tell him all the time that police man are bad and we hate them. Opps thats our fault. So Debbie came and picked up Ciaran so he would be happier. Thanks Debbie. Angie came also and brought her camera so I could take pictures. Thanks Angie. SO what an exciting morning we had and now we have to get our car fixed what a pain but at least no one was hurt.
