What a night!!!!!

The weather people had been saying that the weather was suppose to be bad on Tuesday so I was keeping an eye on the weather reports. Four o'clock was given as the time to be watching so I worked out in the yard and was checking every so often to see what was developing. The humidity was awful which is always a sign that the weather could be bad. Sure enough about 4:00 you could see the storms developing in Ok and I found a live feed on the internet that had storm chasers following a storm in Ok and hitting small towns. The track of the storm looked like it could be heading right over us so we called Dae Lynn and had Daya call about coming over.

Actually, we were suppose to have a kid's church last night but it was canceled because of the weather. Trust me....there's nothing worse than a chuch full of kids and really bad weather!!! We left the weather channel on all evening and they were focusing on the storms so they were keeping us well informed of what was going on. At one point our tv gave a warning and let us know that we were in a tornado watch and it was from the storms that were causing all the tornados but the rotation was dying out and we were fine. My granddaughter, Daya, was amazed that we didn't just rush down to the basement!! But the the southern part of our county is what was in danger.....not us.

We had some rain and a little thunder but things were really pretty mild compared to what we were expecting!!! The weather people are saying that this could go on for a few weeks!!! UGH!!! We must be in some special weather pattern like El Nino or La Nina.

Feyn, Tammy, and the kids were in Dallas!!!! LOL.....Where I figured they were safe and I wouldn't have to worry about them........NOT!!! They were taken to the basement of the hotel where they were staying because of tornados there!!! One struck a mile from where they were at!!!

We had Dae Lynn, Dean, and Karlie spend the night and Daya and Kera ended up staying too!!!

Just to let you know......we DO have a basement and in the basement is a storm shelter that's built underneath our garage so it has concrete on every side. Our builders called it our "fraidy hole"!!!

Thank you so much for your concern and your prayers!!!
