And I wish it had gotten their little dog, too! EVERY time my mom comes out here, we have a tornado...something. Watch, warning..something happens when my mom comes. It doesn't matter if it's April or December. Well, this time was no different. Yesterday, however, was the first time the "Giant Voice" (only military will know what that is) said, "A tornado is approaching....take cover immediately." So, my mom and the girls went and got into the "tornado room" (which is really a storage closet that we cleaned out as fast as possible), while Brian and Dad stood out on the swing set and looked for the tornado. I stood in the doorway yelling at them that they were going to get hit by the tornado or lightening. They assured me that if a tornado was coming, they'd be able to see it because they could see the exact cell that it would come from. OK! Here are the yucky clouds that they were watching. Oh, by the way, nothing happend. Too bad....I was hoping the dog next door would get carried away. But if he got carried away, then I'm sure my house wouldn't have faired much better, so praise the LORD!

Men are so weird. We did the exact same thing on a visit to Illinois, except there was an actual tornado and the men were STILL outside!! I miss the Giant Voice, it was my friend....."lightening within 5 nautical miles" Glad you are safe!
I can't believe you can actually understand the Giant Voice...you crazy ladies! (That was for KC too...) No matter how hard I listen, I STILL only hear "wa-wa-wa-wa-wa-wa!" ...very Charlie Brown-esque.
