Tornados in January????

I’ve yet to post the haircut pics, but I have a great excuse…(No, the quads did not eat my camera.)

Tornado in Indiana in January!!!! NUTS!

I was enjoying a quiet meal at Arby’s when Brad interrupted my bite of Beef ‘n Cheddar by calling me on the cell. He asks where I am and informs me that we are under Tornado Warning, in which I replied, “WHAT????!!!” It was headed my way in five minutes. Not sure if your nearest Arby’s is made of glass, but I’m thinking it wouldn’t be the safest place to be in the event of a twister. I jump in the car and quickly head for the Jones’ house, which was about 5 minutes away and hope they are home….Brad lets me go so he can “heard” up the boys into our bedroom closet. (Explain to me again why they don’t build every house in Indiana with a basement?)

To condense the story…we are all safe and sound. We rode out quite a storm at the Jones’ with wind gust of 80 mph (not sure if there was a tornado touchdown or not). When I left their house – their 2 story playset was in shambles and Jayson was picking up debris in his yard from a neighborhood over….

I came home to firetrucks and emergency vehicles blocking our main road because a chimney had been blown off our neighbor’s home. There was a layer of leftover hail remnants on the sidewalk, but within the hour it was covered with SNOW!

Needless to say, with all the excitement I did not get the pictures posted, but I hope to have a much calmer afternoon to download some sweet pictures of my gentlemen.
