Stormy Night in Georgia

We had terrible thunderstorms move through last night. Certainly the worst I've seen in a while. Yesterday was the hottest day we've had so far and that really set the stage for quite a show! The lightening was constant and it just poured. There was alot of low rumbling thunder and I was praying it wouldn't wake Braelyn up. The winds were unbelievable! I think it was 50-60mph constant for almost an hour! I wasn't nervous here since our apartment is on the back side, but mom and dad's got hit pretty hard. There are several trees down on their neighborhood...some on houses. The pool took the worst of it. It blew the glass table into the pool and shattered the glass, broke the umbrella in half, tore apart the pop up canopy and sunk numerous cushions and signs. The glass is really the big thing, I think. We can't let anyone in the pool until we know that every piece is gotten out. I'm seeing alot of snorkeling practice in my near future. Mom works really hard to make the pool area nice, so I know she's upset. I hope to be able to go down today and help.

We just spent the day yesterday at the pool, too. At one point, there were 21 of us there. Braelyn slept for a good portion of the day, but found time to play with Aiden, Andrew, Kyndal, Ragan, Tucker and others! She truly is her mother's child. I hope to post pictures later today. And although I see fun things like snorkeling in my near future....in my present I see lots of laundry, cleaning and packing for Braelyn. Her Grammie is on her way to pick her up for the Michigan trip and although I'm going to miss her, I sure am looking forward to getting things done!

Pictures to come!
