Scary!

Can I just say how strange it is to live here in tornado country. I was at Josh's baseball game last night and it was HOT when we got there...I mean I was sweating and I was just sitting there. About an hour into the game a storm front came in very fast! I mean at one moment the sky was clear on one side and we could see gray clouds coming from the north. Then suddenly the temperature dropped dramatically and the wind started to blow and every one was running for cover...we could see a funnel cloud right above the field. The dirt was flying everywhere and it was scary!! Five minutes later it passed leaving the air a crisp 53 degrees!! The temperature before that was 80. I had dirt in my hair, dirt in my ears, dirt on my lips and dirt in my mouth! I was so glad we were all okay. We're not in Utah anymore.....

I always worry about stuff like that! When we were in San Diego and we heard about the boy scout thing in the state over from you guys. I hope that things stay safe.

We love you all and are glad you are okay!
