Toto, We Aren't in Kansas Anymore!

*Important message at the bottom of this post!...no we are not pregnant.  :)

Well, we safely made it to Atlanta, GA!  We love our new home and are having a lot of fun putting it together (although it's A LOT of work!).  The trees are absolutely beautiful here and it is so green!  Reminds me of the community I grew up in, Sherwood Forest back home.  Paul and I have spent several evenings now enjoying a glass of wine on our back porch.  It's been really great. 

But, Atlanta gave us quite the welcome 4 days in...
This is the car that rear ended us at a stop light.  He was sadly arrested for driving with a suspended license and had a warrant out for his arrest for drugs.  And there was a good chance the vehicle was stolen.  So, if we were ever to be rear ended by someone this was not quite the best candidate. 

Thankfully, our car received very minimal exterior damage.  However, it makes very strange sounds now and is in the shop. 

Praise God that none of us were injured, including the driver of the other car.  I was turned in my seat looking at the kiddos when it happened, so I experienced a good bit of whiplash.  But, the kids' faces once we were hit were priceless...big googly eyes and then they burst out laughing.  I guess it was an ideal reaction from a 3 and 1 year old...felt like we were in a ride at Disney to them all snug in their Britax car seats. 

And that gave us quite the wake up call and tears of joy rolled down my face as I was thanking God that it wasn't worse than it could have been. 

This will be our last blog for this web address.  Google has notified me that I have used up all of the allotted space for a blog...man I take too many pics haha.  But, it will be worth it when the kids are older and want to take a look back on their past! 

*Our new blog will be www.themagfam2.blogspot.com.  You will most likely need to sign up again to get the email notifications if you would like them. 

See you there!
