About Us

My photo
The title for our blog came from the saying "thinking outside the box", which means to think differently, unconventionally or from a new perspective. "Enjoy your choices and enjoy what you do. Never let a day go by without being thankful for the fact that you get to be here in the first place." Hopefully this blog will help family and friends to stay a little closer to us even though were thousands of miles apart; as well as to share in our trials, daily life adventures and traveling experiences.

It WAS Real!

Doug and I were sitting on the couch Thursday night when it felt as though someone had bumped the couch that both of us were sitting on together. I thought it was my imagination and turned to him to ask if he felt it. He sort of laughed and said yeah it's an earthquake. I of course was trying to be more serious about it. Craziness has been happening all over the world lately! It wasn't until Friday evening when I was out with a friend for her church gathering that they were talking about it. It REALLY did happen. Even though we only felt one tiny shake....it was there!

They are saying it might happen again only even bigger....possibly a 7. I really hope not!

Eeek!!!! I didn't realise it actually was an earthquake til I read your blog!!! We were watching the 9/11 movie on tv at the time and it happened right as they showed the building collapsing, gave us all a huge fright but couldn't figure out what had happened (we initially thought a car had run into our building). Lets hope it doesn't happen again!
