Well I have been uploading for past 2 days I didnt think i would ever get the picture to upload. Then when they do upload it errors on thumbnails.. but the pictures are there just gotta click on the thumbnails and scroll through them in the larger form till im able to get the others to finally finish without erroring.

Here is the pictures from Christmas Day, I was kinda dissappointed at how bad the camera did inside. It does great outside but inside it sucks.

For once we got invited for a Party. Not saying we are hermits but we just dont know alot of people who throw partys. And another Surprise is I actually got the day off! that was a shocker too! We went out there bout 5pm an left bout 9 or 10. We had really good time. Was mostly all older kids there but paul didnt care he ran right along with the girls and had a good time. I went up to the car port that they had set up for danceing which was pretty dark when took the photos which is why the first is blurry.  The one girl said paul wouldnt dance with her lol when I asked him about he said that he just watch.  He was haveing a blast watching and followin them though.

Chris Stowers was a young man that we knew for quite awhile.  He was trying to get his life turned around and get on the up and up. He had just been promoted to Dealer at the Casino Boat when he turned 21 which was 2 days after he was killed in this car wreck.

His dad had bought him his paint for his car which was his whole world. He wanted to fix his Eclipse up to where he could take it and show it at car shows.  We had washed it down and was setting up the paint booth to spray it but, he just was to excited to wait for it to air dry so he decided to drive it around the block.

He never made it back.

A friend of ours Bryan rode with him as he wanted to show him his stereo he had in it I believe. We were waiting for them to come back when we seen the police cars go flying by. We all were like oh no did Chris get caught speeding or something?  Then our phone rang. Joe and Erik were outside and it was Eriks phone that had rang.  Bryan had called from the car. They were in a wreck he was trapped and he said Chris was unconscious.  Joe and Erik were first on the scene and was able to get Brians cell and keys so they could get his car. They raced over to Bryans house to get his parents as Bryan was being stat flighted out. They finally was able to get ahold of Brians step dad which it took them awhile to get it to sink in that Bryan was ok that he was in an accident. Bryan was lucky to make it out alive. He broke his femur in his leg and had to have surgery but all in all was very lucky. I dont know how he got out of that car but we are very thankful he did.

I was at the bottom of the hill as the police wouldn’t let anyone go up the hill. It was awhile later that we found out that Chris had been killed. Sad part was they announced it on the news just a few minutes after they had told the family.  Chris was killed by a drunk driver driving on the wrong side of the road, yet they wrote it up as Chris’s fault. They refuse to change it even after the family hired in an investigator to prove that Chris was on the RIGHT side of the road.

The car club lead the funeral even ahead of the Hurst as they wouldn’t let us carry him as his dad wanted in the back of our dedication truck that we wanted to build for him.
