Tornadoes

Well, we had an interesting day. Choir was nice this morning, Dad came and ran the girls sectionals, and we got a lot done. After we got home around lunch, it got very dark very fast. Apparently, there were supposed to be severe storms today. Well, severe is almost an understatement. At least 3 tornadoes touched down, and one was only 2 miles south of our house. One, in Edmond, lasted around 10 min! You can watch the video here. I don't know about all my friends, but I know several of them lived close to where the tornado hit, so I hope they're all ok. We also got plenty of hail, some of it pretty large:



There was significant damage where the tornado that was close to us hit, and a Target lost it's roof and a Chucky Cheese lost part of the back of it's building. Unfortunately, Hobby Lobby also lost some doors, and maybe more. This is inconvenient because I need to get some things there as soon as possible. So Gabby, if your birthday present is late, its because the tornado closed down the store and I couldn't get what I needed in time to get it to you on your birthday.
