Slip and Slide, A Weekend Review

I made a quick trip to DFW this weekend for a visit and birthday celebration. Overall, it was a great weekend, but a few events stood out...here are some of the best:

Why did the cactus cross the road?

Because he was stuck to the chicken

It's no wonder she's good with kids!!! (Ha...I'm sure you didn't expect me to post that, huh?

2. I filled up my car in NRH today...I got a grand total of 3.5 gallons of gas. But I drove 180 miles. You do the math.

3. I was at the tail end of a massive wreck today. I'm pretty sure at least 16 cars were involved, and the last one (at the time) was right in front of me. Yea, the Jeep Wrangler nailed a pickup truck after locking up the brakes and sliding into it. Luckily the Jeep didn't tip over, even though it did wobble a bit. I slammed on my brakes, skidded a bit, but stopped in plenty of time. I did, however, hit the brakes so quickly that I forgot to depress the clutch. So my car died on the freeway...but truly it was a mess. Lots of smashed cars pointing the wrong direction. Just imagine...

4) The sermon at my parents' church meshed with what we talked about in Bible Study tonight...you gotta love that.

5) There were other good things, but not that interesting to write about, so I will leave you with these...

Hey-- it's a cactus, not a porcupine! =)
