View from the carport looking at tent, less than 30 minutes after everyone left the Open House. Praise GOD you had all left and were safe!!
That's all the debris I had flying at me while trying to make sure BJ got inside safe during the storm. I'm pointing to the cake I threw, no it didn't make me any faster. Believe it or not, I ran thru all that with only a few bruises.
Yes, this is the tent that we'd all been under. That storm was a doozy!!
The backyard tent we had up as well. Now that you've seen this, go back up and look at the pictures with the Blue Spruce trees in the background. They are NO MORE!! Both fell across the street and were completely uprooted. Needless to say, Daddy has a lot of damage to his house, and garage. Toni's truck suffered a little bit but will be fine. Again, we are all so very thankful nobody was seriously injured. BJ, Mari, Sue and I all got a bruise or two, but nothing near what it could have been. Our GOD is so good to have taken you all home safely. I love you!!

U-S-A, All the Way!!!!!



Joshua attended a soccer camp this week and was on team USA. On Friday, they were supposed to paint their faces and have crazy hair. Since Joshua doesn't have much hair to make "crazy"(see our blog for more details on that story), he opted for the painted face and biker bandana look for his head.
