First Week of April

Well it has been a very fun week for us down here in Texas. We have had crazy weather and have been having fun beautifying our home on the inside and out. Lets start with the weather.

April 3, 2012

Peter and I had know idea what the weather was doing that day so we were out of the house all morning doing things without a single drop of rain. It wasn't until I pull up in to the parking lot at work and saw everyone in the storm shelter that I had any idea what was going on, because the only reason we go over there is if there is a real chance of a tornado. So naturally I park and go over there to see what is happening and they tell me that that there was a tornado in Justin which in not far from Denton and that that storm was heading right for us. So i go and clock in and give a prayer of safety for us and for Peter and Sarah how were at home and feel confident that nothing would happen and then went back to the shelter. Well we all waited awhile and then we got the OK to go back to our office and wouldn't you know it next thing we know we see what looks like a funnel cloud forming right over our plant. And between you and me a tornado at a hazardous recycling plant does not sound like to much fun, so all the ladies booked it to the shelter and watched as it slowly passed us and never touched down. I was so thankful for the power of prayer that day also because 10 miles pulse away peter later told me that he saw pink skys, and we all know colored skys in stormy weather is not a good thing, but nothing happened but a bit of rain. So needless to say but we were very blessed that day.

The rest of the week Peter, Sarah and I have been gathering things for our flower bed in the front of the house and have been hanging things up, granted it is mainly just one art set but it is getting there bit by bit. We have bought our flowers and have been prepping the ground for them. We had bought some soil to mix in and had four large bags that we thought would be enough but it turns out we guessed a little low so the four bags only mix up with about half of the box so we will be off to get some more tomorrow to finish it and get our flowers put in.

We will have pictures up soon but until then we hope you all are having a great week!
