I guess we're getting a new mailbox...

Yesterday I was watching TV with my little man

when he heard the garbage truck come and 

ran to the window to watch it.  

He turns to me and says, 

"MOM!! Our mailbox is gone!"

(the bent over white post used to hold our and 

our neighbor's mailboxes)

I wish the tree wasn't in the way, but since I was trying 

to "be sneaky" and didn't want them to see me 

snapping photos...

I had to take them from the small laundry room window.

What you can't see, however,

is what's UNDER the garbage truck.  

Our 4 mailboxes, 

a light post that was in our neighbor's front yard, 

and a small tree (roots and all).

Not to mention what was BEHIND the truck

(our other neighbor's sheriff's car), which

did NOT get hit (barely).

Apparently, the guys were trying to turn around

and the gas pedal got "stuck" and made their

truck spin around before stopping.

 Finally the tow truck arrived, and hopefully

we'll have a new mailbox soon!

In other news...

I had a great time last weekend with my sisters 

(even with two of them being sick).

Here are some fun pics!

 

We stopped by to see my bro at work.

 They look hard at work, but really he was mostly just

showing us his "hilarious" youtube videos of cats.

Mom and 4 out of 5 of the girls.

 Still in total denial that my oldest sister is moving 

out of the state in like a week...

And this last one is just for fun :)

Gotta love roadies!!
