It is official Michael is now 14. He turned 14 on SundayOctober 19th. We had a family gathering at our house on Sunday for his birthday. We had mom-mom, pop-pop, Uncle Steve, Aunt Barb, Delaney, and Stevie over for dinner and cake. We all had a great time and it was wonderful to catch up with everyone. He received presents and love that day. Michael is growing up to be an amazing boy who I love to be around. He brightens a room when he walks into it. I am so glad he is part of my life. Happy Birthday Michael.
That same night we added a newcomer to our family. I was in the house when Kevin called for me to come outside to see what he found. I went outside to see that he had a little gray and white kitten in his arms. She was the cutest thing and she seemed to love Kevin. We tried to see if anyone had lost her, but no one knew who she belonged to. We brought her in and gave her some food and water. We decided to keep her for the night because it was going to be cold out . Kevin said that we can't keep her and that we need to find a home for her. Kevin's mom said that she would take her if we didn't want her, but little did I know Kevin fell in love with her. Long story short we decided to keep her with us. Callie and Roxy seem ok by her. She chases after Roxy and Roxy seems to like it. Callie doesn't seem to be bothered by her, she just hisses every once in awhile when the kitten gets to close. We are all happy with our new addition to our family.
Introducing Molly Ann Hallowell
Last but not least was our wonderful car accident. It happened on Saturday October 25. We were on our way to take Michael to his soccer game. It was really windy and rainy that day. We were coming off the ramp when it happened. There was a Ram truck stopped at the top of the ramp waiting to turn right and we coming up from behind. We were coming up the ramp slowing and Kevin began to apply the breaks. Well he applied it, but the car wouldn't come to a stop. He turned the wheel to right hoping to miss the truck, but the car won't turn or stop. We had no where to go but into the back of the truck. Our car hit the truck with a hard it. We are all fine but the car took a beaten. The whole front end was pushed up and in. The lady in the truck was fine and our car just made a dent in her fender. We waiting awhile for a police officer to come and tells us it was our fault, like we didn't know. We think that the wet ground mixed with wet leaves explained why we couldn't stop. Needless to say that we are down a car and are not sure if they
are going to total the car. The good news is that we are all fine. 
Like I said before it was a busy week and I am hoping that we have a really boring week this week. No more surprises please.

Firstly, I'm so grateful you are all okay...let's hope they total the car so you can get a new one!! ;-) Just so long as it smells the same...mmmmmmm, cologne-like pine tree smelly thing dangling from the mirror...mmmmm. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MIKE!!! I'm so sorry - I SUCK in the "remembering B-days department" I'll make it up to you. AND, LOVE the new cat!!! She looks an awful lot like Tinker! Maybe it's destiny. If we can't be together we can have twin cats! Welcome to the Hallows, Molly - I apologize in advance for the permanent mental damage that will inevitably occur due to living in the same household as that bunch of whackos! ;-) Love you guys!! Go Phillies!
