Sabbath Smashup

So much for a fun and relaxing Sunday afternoon with the Hicken family. I invited the parents and Craig over to our place for a little family fun. About the time they should have been arriving .... we received a call.

Mitchell and I came to the rescue. We brought family fun time to them... and Craig sure had fun

Yes, I take the blame. I confess, my invitation to fun led to this incident. My mom says she still loves me.

In the midst of this melt down ... there was another meltdown. In Mitchell's eyes, an even more tragic meltdown ... an ice cream meltdown.

Father Hicken bids farewell to his trusty steed and sheds a single tear

A family van needs to be replaced. Ouch, that will cost thousands. But a family in good spirits and healthy, that's priceless! Thanks Mitchell and Erin for coming to the rescue. And how blessed we are just to have the van crunched and not us!

Was that just today? Sorry aunt Jannie. Will you be riding your bikes down to the summer games now?

Thanks for posting the pics on this. Bret and I had a good chuckle at your commentary yet we are also very glad that no one got hurt. We're pretty sure that it's because Heavenly Father likes the Hicken Seniors.

Don't worry Lynn ... I'm sure they will have purchased an Excursion or Escalade by the time they need to help you move ....

Hey, insurance says we have a free rental so maybe it will be an Escalade. I feel fancy....

How sad is that. Come on now Erin, must you take all of the responsibility? I love the pics though.

You are great at blogging. I am so proud of you and can't wait for future posts.
