What a wonderful day we had. We had some friends over and kids got to spend the hot/humid day outside in a jumper, sprinkler and a kiddie pool. Oh to be a kid again.




Well, not sure where to start. Our company left and the storms came. We had quite a interesting day (weather wise) Around 3:30 we were issued a tornado warning. After what happened here 2 years ago-of course we kind of freaked out when we heard the siren. So here is some of the damage that the storm did. Some it was a tornado others say just really high winds. I'm not sure what to think. Didn't get a picture of the wood play structure that was still intacked just not in the spot that I was suppose to be. (You tell me) Sorry some of these pics are blurry but didn't want to stop to take pics. Bottom Left--notice the electric poles. Most of the area was without power. We were lucky Some on our block are without power. I forget to mention how close this was to us. ONE BLOCK!!!! Click on picture to enlarge it.

We had a really nice time. Thanks! Oh my, it looks like we left just in time!! That's so scary. We were in Menards & happened to meet D & L there so we were all safe (?) in the store while the sirens were going off... Glad things are safe by you but TOO CLOSE!

Glad to hear that you are all OK....really scary to have that stuff happen so close. Good luck with all the water (ask my mom and dad about that they have lots of experience!). Hugs to all.
