The Calm Before the Storm

Tonight we had a friend over for dinner. Even though it was storming we decided to eat outside on our front porch. While eating all of a sudden the wind completely stopped blowing and it became very still and odd and scarey...just like in the movies. Then almost immediately the town siren started up signaling a tornado. We took off inside and down to the basement and all hundled in our teeny tiny basement bathroom for 30 minutes. In the midst of the storm I talked Chris into leaving our safety zone to get the camera so that we could take a goofy picture of all of us hunkered down in the BR. Here's our moment captured on film!!

This is hilarious! Hope your dinner guest is a close friend of the family...if he wasn't before he sure is now!

Exactly! Did you see the bottle of wine to the right of the bathroom? That's our bar area. We were armed and well prepared...not such a bad place to be!
