I couldn't believe what was falling from the sky Friday afternoon! It started out as a thunderstorm, and then Bryce and I went to the window when we heard a little bit of hail. All of a sudden it was like golfballs were coming from the sky. They were bouncing all over the place. That's when we took cover. I couldn't hear my own voice over the hail pelting the back of our home. My MIL lives in Gallatin off of Brown's Lane. That's where the F3 tornado came through. Her house withstood the twister, but two streets up homes were leveled.
Here's the aftermath from our home:
Only our vinil got busted up in the back. None of our window were broken either. I consider us pretty lucky!

The newest addition to the family....
Here it is....in the flesh. And in my driveway.

This was on my list of "dream cars" on a previous blog, and my husband and I finally took the plunge and traded in our Jeep for this. It's such a fun car to drive! It's like a 4-door sports car. I'm very happy with our decision!

One Big FAT Blog
I haven't blogged since just before vacation. I've actually still been in the "vacation" mindframe since I came home Thursday night. I haven't had to work since I've been back, and reality is just now setting in. I also haven't had to get adjusted to the time change either! Okay, it's 8pm and I still have so much to do!
Arizona was a BLAST! My best friend celebrated her birthday on Sunday. We pretty much partied like rock stars the entire time we were there. There was alot of this:
Followed by this:
My sister made nice with the owner of a bar in Tempe, so we got to experience for the first time what it's like to be a VIP. Back door entrance, photos for the social pages, people buying you drinks. Loads of fun!
We also visited our old house in Avondale, AZ. It's changed alot since my parents moved to Tennessee. Here's a picture....
We all got along great for the four days we stayed together. I got too much sun (ouch!), but also got to blow off a little steam. I'm now relaxed, refreshed, and ready for whatever may come my way!
