Hey!
Well, even though I talked to you yesterday, we did have a really crazy night last night. Ironically, right after we had all just talked about how the tornadoes here aren't really a big deal and don't need to worry about one, there was one about 5 miles away last night!!
About 8:15 pm we were getting texts from our leaders to make sure we were safe and they told us to stay in and not go out and to stay where it was safe. We did and didn't really think anything of it. We did the usual routine and went to bed early, but about 10:20 pm, we started to hear thunder like cannons and all you could see outside was the constant flash of lightning. We talked to Sis. Nix and she just laughed and said not to worry about it and we went back to bed. We literally were in our room for like 5 minutes when the sirens went off then all we heard was Sis Nix. yelling "Sisters! Get shoes and get in the basement NOW NOW!!" So we spent a half hour listening to the storm radio telling us minute by minute where the storm was. The tornado touched down in Stanton about 5 miles away. No damage to us at all. Our car was fine, the house was fine. The storm moved straight east of us after that and all we saw was the lightning and thunder and golf ball sized hail again. It was quite a night!
Love you guys!
