Not exactly the way I envisioned my day going...
A severe storm headed right for us made me run out to grab the mail and trash cans before it hit us. An hour and a half later, we get to come inside out of the rain!
I heard it the minute I picked up our first trash can...the door slammed.
I looked up to find both of my kiddos running toward me.
Yep, sure enough, the door is locked tight!
I ran to 5 neighbors, kids in tow, to borrow a phone but not one neighbor was home. Finally on another block I found someone home. I had to wait over an hour for my parents to bring the spare key. We sat on our bench for a while watching the lightening, listening to the thunder and praying that it would miss us. Prayers were indeed answered. It srinkled and even rained enough to move us back to the alcove of the front door but we did watch the storm move right beside us. We didn't get anything severe.
After making it back in safely, I did pull up the weather fo find that what just skimmed over us was large hail, high wind, and lots of rain. The kids were very ungry and very quiet while they ate their lunch picnic style right under my feet!
