Flood

Saturday morning it was raining pretty hard as friends started to arrive for a baby shower. We thought it was just another storm that would soon end and leave the skies blue and sunny, but it just kept raining. As the baby shower was ending we started to hear sirens. It was not just fire trucks. It was the tornado sirens in town. They went off three times that day. Soon there was flood warnings, and roads were being closed. My friends tried returning to their families. The last friend left at five and returned home at 6:45 pm. The rain continued through Sunday. We live on a hill, so our home was spared. We are so thankful and blessed. I felt very loved and covered in prayer as many friends, neighbors and family called, emailed and text to see how we were. Here are some pictures from the flood.
