We were SO happy to see sunshine today! We played and played. Nora begged for some ice-her newest obsession. The first picture is her eating the ice. The second is a picture of her putting ice in her mouth after she had set it on the porch to rest. Disgusting- mom was too busy working the camera to notice until it was too late. Ewww.





We had a pretty bad tornado rip through the mid-south this past week. It was the first time I've ever taken cover and felt like putting a mattress on top of me. Very scary. Anyway, we had all the essentials. Wrapping paper (who knew it could entertain for so long) toilet paper, cell phone, flashlight, books, and more books.



Nora in the hall with mommy in the closet. No, I didn't neglect my child, but after the whole bag of cookies had been eaten, I couldn't think of another bribe to keep her in that hot closet. Had the wind blown hard, I would have put her in a full nelson to keep her in there, don't worry.



Yes, time out still occurs when there's a tornado warning.




Nora's thankful for Denver (or denny boy as she calls him) to give her support after a difficult time out. :)




Brushing teeth and sleeping in mommy and daddy's bed.
It was a difficult night. Many lives were lost- I think I read that 8 tornados touched down in Memphis. We are thankful the Lord spared our home.
