Man...that was scary!
Friday was a ROUGH day for our neighborhood! I think this am we counted at least 5 to 6 houses that people cannot live in due to the destruction.
We had a tornado go through about 1:00ish (I think...at this point I don't even remember what time it was...we were huddled in our hallway and then made a mad dash for Martina's bathroom!). It did a lot of damage to our community. A good part of the folks around here do not have electricity.
We were spared and only lost a few shingles on our roof (at least so far that is what we see) and a few trees down in the back yard. We also had 3 pieces of our fence blown down. Two are temporarily put back up so far. The guy on that side is going to call the fence company....we put the fence up about 2 or 3 years ago so he said it is his turn. The one piece that is down on the other side is really a privacy part of a fence so there is a chain link on the other side of it. We have other minor stuff...The two trees we lost are on the creek and one of them was a big part of our shade so now we have more light in our den that I care for but what can we do....we are thankful that they didn't go on or in our house like so many others in our neighborhood! Besides the 5 or 6 that are not livable there are again as many that have trees that fell on their houses...(just not in them). So there are lots of blue tarps up that is for sure. The neighborhood right behind ours (the other side of the creek) still don't have electricity....WalMart and Brookshires are running off of generators....but they are open!
Anyway...it was a day to remember...huddled together, praying for protection.....and a weekend full of thanksgiving! Some how no one got hurt!!!
I've got big news to share about Reva's photograph here in a bit....she is super excited!

Purple Snurple
Caardvarks challenge was for PURPLE...well..it is my FAVORITE color so who could resist this challenge...and nothing like coming in under the wire!
And because I could, I did a layout! Not for any challenge, but simply for me...I couldn't get it like I wanted and then I thought about adding the white circles...I think they added just the right touch. Not the most WOW layout, but I like it anyway, it isn't always about WOW now is it?
Hmmm....what will tomorrow bring???

April SHOWERS!
Well...nothing like starting the first day in April off with the appropriate, APRIL SHOWERS...lots of rain, but makes everything look so lush so I won't complain.....but that does mean that yard work will be kicking up big time....and to top it off, the temp Thurs looks to be around 86.....umm....where is spring?
Anyway....thought I would go on and post some cards...they are for this Saturday's Card Club at ASF!
They are featuring one of QK's Lil Monster sets! Sooooooo cute! Designed by Tanis! If you want the kit there might still be a few available and they are only like $14.99 if you do them month to month! A 6 month script is like $13.99 and a 12 month one is $12.99 (I'm almost positive) and in each one you will get a stamp set! You can't beat that!
Of course ASF's web site is still having difficulties...but hopefully that will be fixed this week....sigh....such is life on the internet!
