Help

A plea from Michelle to James. She managed to create her own family blog, but can't seem to figure out how to post to ours. As master of the blog.... she turns to you. Her blog can be read at packardclan.blogspot.com.

Forgotten Password?

Al right.....who forgot their password?

The Crucible

Since Marquie spends all her extra waking hours on Facebook and doesn't seem to have the time to blog to the family, I thought I would post a few of her pictures from "The Crucible". The kids did a great job and it was enjoyable all three times we saw it:) Pretty sure Dad didn't ever see it all the way through snore, elbow, snore, elbow, snore) he says he did. Right.

And so the saga continues....

There were not very many pictures yesterday, so I thought I would post a few extra. The story.... maybe I will make you call. Ha ha ha!!! (evil laugh) Kidding. We were in Crystal Lake, stopped at a stop light. Very RED stoplight. Guy in ginormous truck slams in the back of us. Owwww. We are o.k. Joe is the worst off, because he tensed up right before. The rest of us didn't know until we were hit. Joe went into shock and I was very shaken. The kids just wanted to know what the heck happened. Chloe seems to have been the only child hurt, though all will be visiting the chiropractor next week. We have a member in our ward who is a chiropractor and has an office in Crystal Lake. He came back in and took care of Joe and I today. We both hurt alot, as our bodies are now starting to stiffen up, but it could have been much worse. We are taking the car in on Monday and also have to get all new carseats. Whatever, his insurance pays. We will be taking advantage of this fact for chiropractic visits until we all feel better. We spent the drive home discussing how blessed we really are. No one was seriously injured, the glass didn't break in the back, the van is still drivable (though the back is useless), we were having problems with the latch on the back anyway, the back wiper wasn't working, and we get a covered light in the back (Justin understands this one), and it wasn't our fault. Joe had just gotten the address changed on his liscence this morning. Yes, they give tickets for that. I feel bad for the other guy. His registration was expired, his insurance card was expired, and it was clearly his fault. See, very blessed indeed. We will be home tomorrow night if you have further inquiries. Love you all. Tune in next time as the saga continues......
