Count Your Blessings

So the wedding went well this weekend and my little sister was beautiful and we all survived. But on Sunday Robert had to go back to Oregon to help finish the harvest. On his way home, he hit a patch of ice, started fish-tailing in our little Toyota truck and slid off the road hitting a major traffic sign. Our truck is now totalled, but thankfully Robert escaped completely unharmed. He didn't hit anyone else and even though an officer helped him call a tow truck, we weren't issued a ticket. We are immensely grateful for how favorable this situation turned out. Sammy and I weren't with Robert, which we had been considering. The truck is fully covered (we just paid our insurance last week). Robert wasn't hurt, and, my sister and her family were a little ways ahead of Robert going the same direction, so they were able to turn around and take him the rest of the way to Oregon. These and many, many other blessings we are grateful for today!

Oh, the poor little truck! But we are so glad Robert is safe.
