Thunder and Lightning!





















I told my mom that Claire might grow up to be a meterologist because she loves the weather. On Saturday night Nathan called us from work and said that he had seen some lightning off to the south. Claire pulled the chair from the computer desk out to the front porch and sat out there for about 30 minutes watching the lightning. She would have watched longer but it was bedtime.
On Sunday after church the wind was blowing so hard it blew some trees down and knocked out the power. Claire was outside twirling in it!
Last night and this morning we have had some fabulous thunder and lightning and it has been pouring rain. Claire wanted to go out and play in the rain as soon as she woke up! She wasn't very happy that her dad made her put some clothes on first. I am just glad that she doesn't get scared by the thunder and I am very grateful for the rain. We needed it badly!

Kayley,
Those pictures are very cute. It blew so hard here that my neighbors gate to his fence blew off, but we didn't lose power. I LOVE storms. We've been in school for a week too. We started last monday. I have 28 kids this year. We just got back from Sears having family pictures taken. I will try to post them if I can figure out how. Take care.
