I guess this is an appropriate title for Halloween. The sad thing is it is true. Cort lost his baby on August 26th, 2008. I was taking my cousins baby to my aunt and uncles house. I was stopped in the lane to turn left, because there was no turn lane. I was then plowed into by a truck going between 40-50 mph. It threw my car 20 ft forward. The blessing was that I was not hurt nor were all three of the boys in the back seat. My kids did not even cry. They detoured traffic and all the emergency crews came. The emt told me we were very lucky, because they have pulled people out of less serious accidents. The policeman was showing Cort that our Accord did exactly what it was built to do in an accident. Besides being a little sore my kids and I are completely fine. Someone was definitely looking after us that day.
This last wednesday night Cort, Gavin and I got to go to one of the most exciting Boise State games. My brother Doug was nominated by his speech therapist to go to a Bronco game. He was given 5 tickets in special seating and given fifty dollars in consessions. They even gave the adults sideline passes. After the game the players came to sign posters they gave us it was so fun!! There were only about 15 people in this section. It was fun to go with my mom and Doug they have never been to a game before and loved it

Gavin was so excited to get this from his grandma at easter. He sits and shaves with Cort all the time.

Go Broncos! I listen to the games every week through the internet on KIDO. So fun that you guys got to go to a game!
Scary car accident!! I'm glad everyone was ok (and I hope the other guy had insurance!) Taking care of stuff like that can be such a headache!!
All I can say is you were definitely blessed. I am glad to hear that no one one hurt. Cute pics of the family at the game and birthday party.
I drove that babe off the lot. Okay I wasn't driving but I was sitting shotgun and was wishing I was driving.

I'm so sorry about the accident. But really glad you and the boys are okay. How scary. Cute b-day pics!
Hey you two!!! How are things going? Your family is so cute!
Wow! You really got bumped from behind. I'm so glad you're okay. Have you found a new car yet? The same thing happened to us turning into the church when we were pregnant with Lila but not nearly so bad.
oh man Cort, sorry to hear about your Accord! I remember the day you bought that! Good times. You will never guess who I just talked to...Julie Hickenlooper! This is the first time since I think Provo! CRAZY

Emily your blog is so cute! And so are your kids! How are you doing? I think I lost your number you need to give it to me again. Hope all is well!
