So what do falling trees, tornados, and walking all have in common?? Not much, except we've experienced them in the last 24 hours! Yesterday, conditions in our area were ripe for tornados. I glanced at the sky and the weather station on and off throughout the day. Then during our family scripture reading last night, the sirens went off. Having learned that sirens mean "go into the bathroom" rather than "go outside and take a look," we got the kids in the bathroom and watched the news. There were lovely rotating clouds, touch downs, power-outages, and hail all around us. We just had strong winds. Later when things calmed down, we looked out our window. My! what bush is that??! It wasn't a bush, but our tree had split and fallen. It fell in such a good way that it didn't land on our house or on T's car! Blessing. So this is the excitement of living where tornados brew.
Today the boys had their annual school walk-a-thon. I went to cheer them on.

He ran off and on the whole time and turned beet-red.
L. getting a drink.
Run, X-man, run!
