The Simpson Girls are falling apart!!

She is gonna kill me for posting this, but I got a frantic phone call from Julie down in Texas this morning. She bent over to get baby Lila and her back went out on her.  She was barely able to get the phone and call dad.  I stayed on the phone with her and she was in excruciating pain and unable to move at all.  She was locked in her house and she was half on and half off the couch. The baby was crying in a jumpy seat a couple of feet away.  She was strong and held it together. As we all know she is one tough cookie and I have never heard her in such agony.  I called our cousin Trent and he called 911.  Dad and Trent both arrived and they took her via ambulance to  the hospital for an MRI.  We are hoping for a strained muscle or spasms. Boy what a reminder not to take our body and health for granted once again.  Poor Chris was in trial and Julie didn't want to bother him.  Its tough nursing 1600 miles away. Good rescue work Trent and DaddyO!
**update-spasms-she's ok-LOVE YOU JULES!

I hope Julie feels better soon but I thinks she was trying to upstage you. Silly Julie, get well soon!

Hey Simpson Girls!!
Another here....I can't believe how long its been since we have seen you. I think the last time I saw Julie was when she stared in Grease back in Houston...many years ago. I was little, but I still remember going with her. I hope you are all doing great..under the circumstances. I love you.
