Crazy Storms

I'm usually not scared of storms. Of course, most storms don't wake me up from a dead sleep. Last night we woke up to the worst sounds of wind and hail on our roof and windows. Along with consistent flashes of lightning.

It actually scared me. I was so nervous that a tornado was headed our way - the winds were that strong. I worried about whether we should wake up the kids and head downstairs. We learned on the radio that 50,000 people had already lost power. And there were tornadoes - but thankfully not too close to us.

In the end I was relieved when the winds died and we were able to go back to sleep.
