Stormy Nights!

Last night as I was blogging the storms were starting to roll in and tonight as I sat down to find a picture for tonight's blog another storm rolled in...thunderstorm...hopefully tonight we aren't going to face tornado sirens!  Last night I think that our town warning siren went off two or three times.  The third was the time that the tornado was actually on a path to us...BUT...praise the Lord as it got here it dissipated.  I keep picturing Nathan and Kathy and their seven all in their pantry--very close quarters!  Woody went on a four-mile walk this morning.  And, he has worked in the yard today.  I had school...a normal Tuesday.  Art was fun today.  We made homemade puffy paint.  Each of the four made a color and then shared the colors to paint their pictures.  Then we popped the pictures in the microwave for 30 seconds and the paint puffed up and dried all at the same time.  A fun project...another one that I found instructions for on the internet.  Woody drove to the prayer room at church tonight due to impending storms.  He is next door at the moment.  I'm going to join him momentarily.  Kathy and Nathan have a meeting.  They will be coming over here to conduct their meeting via phone and computer and they need it quiet (not always guaranteed with seven children!) .  Goosey (Woody) and I are in charge of bedtime story time.  They are all pretty tired as they had a late night due to the storms...they all had a sleepover in their living room so they would be close to their safe place in case of a tornado.  Our thunderstorm seems to have passed on and we just have rain at the moment...light rain at that.
