Excitement!

I feel like I have an overload of posts, but at the same time, with the upcoming move, I know I might be without my home computer for a few days or more, so there might be a lull for a while. I don't want to forget to document anything, so bear with me!

Anyway - this weekend we had the excitement of tornado warnings about 8:30 on Saturday night! Not a good kind of excitement, but all turned out okay. We ended up getting our "shelter" ready (under our stairs) and actually got all 3 boys out of bed because it wasn't clear where the storms were heading. And when you have 3 boys, and Landon's room on the opposite side of the house, it's better to be prepared.


First we got Landon out of bed and he stayed sound asleep on the couch the whole time. Then we decided we better get Aiden and Austin out of bed when the sirens went off again. Austin went right back to sleep on my shoulder and we were just settling in to watch the weather and Dave says "Ummm...Aiden just threw up!" That's right - in the middle of a tornado warning, Aiden threw up all over Dave! Maybe he was nervous - LOL!

So, back to bed Austin went so we could clean up Aiden....and Landon slept through the whole thing!! We ended up putting Aiden back to bed after that and Landon, too, because by then the storm had turned south.

Long story short - we never ended up in the "shelter" but that's okay - we were all safe!!!

I didn't end up getting any pictures of the boys - with all the throw-up and all. Here are a few of the interesting clouds we saw that night.
