Thanksgiving at my mom's house and the subsequent car accident.

My mom lays out a nice table. - IMG_2511
My brother brought his new cat, Simone. She's meeting Grandma for the first time. - IMG_2512
Izzy wasn't allowed inside while the cat was in Grandma's arms. Don was nice enough to keep her company outside. - IMG_2513
Simone was a little skittish with Izzy right outside... - IMG_2514
but pretty soon she calmed down. - IMG_2515
This is what I get to sit next to at the Thanksgiving table. - IMG_2516
A face only a mother could love. - IMG_2517

I was coming from the left. I skidded through the stop sign as I desperately tried to turn towards the camera. I didn't make the turn and I hit the curb. You can see my erratic tracks in the snow as I pulled away from the curb. - IMG_2519
Unfortunately hitting the curb knocked the wheels back and my car couldn't make it any further than about 50 feet. The road was so slippery that the tow truck wasn't able to back up the hill so we pushed the car down to the tow truck. - IMG_2520
While I was waiting to be towed, we saw another accident about a block away. The police car's lights are visible in this picture.
