Tornado Pics

We survived the Tornado :) Here are a few pics
This is a river of hail running down the street.
 Tyler said it was crazy to see. I was to busy hiding in the basement to witness it first hand.

My poor plants didn't fair so well. The piles of hail were crazy

The little ones asleep in the basement. They never did wake up and were so confused by all the hail the next morning.


Tallon showing how big some of the hail was. He was wide eyed and full of excitement with the thought of being sucked up in a tornado 

Our front steps. The hail and rain got in the window wells and started flooding the basement. Tyler spent a few cold mins in a foot of ice water bailing it out.

The next morning the boys and I walked around the complex to see some of the damage. All the flowers and trees took a real beating. There was some roof damage on a few of the units.



It was a wild night. Talking to a few of the neighbors who weren't hiding in their basements, we found out that the police and fire departments were driving around the neighborhoods with their loud speakers tell people to get inside and seek shelter. Where we live isn't usually part of tornado's, but it has happened before. They say there were a few tornado's that formed by the house but nothing touched down.
Pretty crazy experience.
