TORNADO

ON MAY 1ST WE HAD A TORNADO WARNING!! THE SIRENS WERE ALL GOING OFF, IT WAS RAINING, HAILING, THUNDERING, AND LIGHTENING!! (sorry if they are spelled wrong!) IT WAS QUITE SCARRY, THEY DON'T HAVE TORNADOES IN IDAHO. WELL, THE STORM WAS HEADED RIGHT TOWARDS US GOING 40 MPH AND ON THE NEWS IT WAS SHOWING US THAT THE CLOUDS WERE STARTING TO ROTATE AND CIRCLE. ABOUT 25-30 MILES FROM US THE STORM ALL OF THE SUDDEN STARTED HEADING NORTHEAST INSTEAD OF JUST NORTH (lucky us)! THEN AFTER IT HAD TRAVELED ABOUT 25-35 MILES (not in our direction anymore) THE TORNADO TOUCHED AND YA IF IT WOULDN'T HAVE CHANGED COURSE IT WOULD HAVE HIT US OR BEEN PRETTY DARN CLOSE!! AAAAAHHHHHHH! YA I WAS FREAKING OUT BUT HEY I AM ALIVE!!



Anyways, today i took some pictures of Nate in his new clothes (okay, okay, i got them at the baby shower but this is the first time he has been able to wear them.) I think he looks pretty good. They are his 6-9 month clothes! The bottoms are supposed to be shorts, they kindof look like capris. He generally can fit into tops a month or two early but the bottoms are generally marked right! This last one Nate was playing with my phone and took it himself .
Today we are just going to get what we can packed cause we are leaving to LaReta(mom-in-law) and Jennifers (sister) graduation and then we are heading up to Chicago!! I am pretty excited to see everyone!
