A little more excitement


We had yet another big storm blow through here last night. The winds did some damage. When we woke up this morning the awning was ripped off our swing in the back yard. I showed it to the girls and said, "look what that storm did last night, it ripped our swing". The girls have a Little Tykes plastic slide that was tipped over and Angie yelled, "Oh no, look at our slide!" Sheesh!
I heard on the radio that a hotel that was almost finished being built was leveled last night so Brent and the girls drove by to look at it, along with everyone else in town, he said it was like a Chistmas light tour, all these cars driving by slowly to look. :-)
Karianne calls Tornadoes "tortillas". It's weird because she calls tortillas the same thing and doesn't seem to notcie that she is using the same word. Anyway, it's funny to hear her talk about hiding from the tortilla, people getting hurt and buildings getting knocked down from giant tortillas. She saw a lady on the news who had bandaids on who had rode through the storm and she prayed for the 'grandma who was hurt by the tortilla and had bandaids on her face'.

BTW, we did get our Travel Approval today. Our agency is going to try to request a May 28th Consulate Appointment in China!
