I look up at Chris, "What was that?!" and he answers, "Either someone just got into a wreck right outside our back yard...or IN our back yard.". Of course, we immediately head to the back yard and this is what we find:
Luckily, no one was hurt, including the driver...but more importantly our dog, Bailey, and our entire family. Yes, he was drunk driving...at 7:45pm in the evening...and it was a single car accident.
We're not exactly sure what happened, but the police officer speculated that he had done a U-turn (would have been 3 houses down from us where the u-turn occurred), sped out of it, and lost control. Right now our fence is STILL not repaired, but there is a temporary wire piece set up to keep Bailey in at least.
I'm REALLY trying not to focus on the bad luck that seems to plague us (ie: in our old house about 4 years ago we had a car drive up INTO our front yard, about 3 feet from our master BR window where we were sleeping, and run over our mailbox on his way out of our yard) and focus on the blessing that no one was injured, or worse.

I am SOOOO glad none of you were hurt!!! Talk about a close call! Look at it this way- it was actually good luck that you had gone inside already! ;-) Sucks about the fence though! I am just amazed everytime I look at this picture! Crazy!! :-o
Crazy! WOW!
That is insane!! Thank goodness noone was hurt! I hate to even think about what could have happened!! Don't drink and drive people!!
Wow! That is crazy! I am so thankful that you guys weren't in the backyard anymore. I hope that driver gets the appropriate punishment AND has to pay to have your fence fixed!
Seriously! Wow! Glad you are all ok.
