Life with Pugs

Oops.....

Well, Sunday started out like a pretty normal day. We got ready for church, stopped to get some coffee at Peaberry (which, by the way, was terrible) and were headed to the church building to teach the middle school Bible class. We were just minding our own business, driving down Alameda, when BAM! we hit the car in front of us! Thankfully, we did not hit the car very hard, so our airbags did not deploy. But we were stuck on the side of the road for at least half an hour, waiting for the police and exchanging information. Apparently, someone several cars in front of us stopped suddenly, then the car behind her stopped, causing the guy behind her to hit her and then we hit him. We ended up with a ticket for following too closely, but thankfully everyone was okay and we sustained very little front end damage, all of which Jason will be able to fix. Not exactly the way we planned to spend our Sunday morning--I would much rather take middle schoolers any day! Even though our experience was very minor, the outpouring of concern we received once we finally made it to church was wonderful. It is such a blessing to be a part of God's family, especially in a place where we don't have our real families to care for us.

On a happier note, the Women of Faith conference was amazing! It took place in the Pepsi Center, which holds about 15,000 people and is home to the Denver Nuggets and the Colorado Avalanche. Imagine a place that big full of women praising God! There were wonderful speakers and presentations, and even several Christian recording artists. It was a blessing to be a part of that experience and if you ever get the chance, GO!

Well, I hope everyone is doing well and staying safe. Keep those blogs coming--I love reading them and am actually somewhat addicted to blogs! I have founds lots of people from ACU and even Wichita Falls, so it is so fun. Keep it up!

What I learned from our wreck: don't drink Peaberry coffee (I truly believe the coffee is at fault--if it hadn't been so bad, we wouldn't have been so distracted!!).
