Storms!!!!

[Janet]

They were calling for us to get some of the bad in the storms, but it missed us. We got some rain, wind, thunder and lightning, but nothing too bad at all. Today is suppose to be nice, up in the mid 60's. I love springtime, but not the storms it brings with it.

Glad everything is good with you Diana..showed Ricky the pictures and he was shocked.

Tell Ricky that it would have been very exciting to be here. The girls were running everywhere! In and out, in and out. I don't know how many pieces of hail that I have in my freezer, but they all represent a trip in and out!!!! Of course, the scanner was picking up the storm watchers which created it's own excitement. I just wanted to cry. I knew that the brick wouldn't be hurt but I was worried about the guttering, roof, and my windows and the kids' homes. And, poor Reuger just wanted to be held!

OMG!! Diana I have not posted in a few days. Wow that hail looks like snowballs. I have never seen anything like that before.. I have to show my husband the photos. Unbelievable!!! Thank God that you are all safe. I wouldn't want to think of someone getting hit with that size hail.. Could be deadly wow...

Thank God everybody is safe!

Diana,

I love your attitude. The girls running in and out, the beautiful pictures, and all through a terrible storm. You are wonderful!

I walked out in the yard today to check on how my irises did during the storm and there's holes all over the yard. I first thought, oh no, an armadillo got in the yard and was digging but I soon realized that the holes were everywhere. They were from the hail hitting the ground. Some are about 2-3 inches deep!!

Diana, Did you get the storms last night too?

Wow Diana, can you imagine the impact that would have had one anyone outside at the time? Thank God everyone was safely under cover.

We had some rain last night but I slept through it so it must not have been too bad. My husband said that it rained hard. We have a pretty good chance of rain for the next few days. We keep a close eye on the internet weather when storms come in. We're too far to hear any sirens that go off in town.

Actually, I found out that their Mom wouldn't let them out in it so Jaci put a bucket over her head and was running all over everywhere. She said that she got hit on the back and that it did hurt. She is so daring! She always has bruises and scrapes and hurts!!!
