We're pretty exhausted out here from a very long, excited night. Most of you know of the Tornado that hit out here where we live(don't worry, it didn't hit us) and the big storm. I know several people were killed in the storm, so let's all be mindful in prayer for those families.
We are all fine, and very thankful for a basement to camp out in through the night. We woke up this morning to find some siding off or house, a shed flown into one of the barns, and other damage around the farm and town - we're safe though, and damage is fixable. We praise the Lord for His hand on everyone effected by the storm! We have so much to be thankful for - a safe house, all of us ok, the power being back on, our computer and files are alright, and so much more. We think of others who have lost so much in storms and tragedies and thank the Lord for His goodness.

Thanks for the prayers, and I hope all our other friends around the storm are ok. Prayers for them as well!


Another adventure!

p.s. Oh, and a happy leap day to you, and happy birthday to Frederick - he is a little boy of five! :-)

Glad to hear your all safe. I guess I'm a bum; my family was up last night when the storm hit but I was passed out in my room. I think I could sleep through armageddon.lol
