Was that a train?...

No...it was a tornado! Tuesday night a tornado ran through our neighborhood. It came through our back property and took out 4 trees and continued on taking out several trees in our neighbor's yards as well. It was not on the ground but about 7-9 feet in the air.
The kids were a bit excited but, not really too frightened b/c the sirens didn't sound until after the tornado passed by...so we really didn't realize what was going on til it happened-and it was very quick. It was the perfect ending to an extremely difficult and emotional day?!
Everything since then has been ok and running smoothly...praise the Lord for that!
Calixto and the team left Jalpa and returned to Tamaz today. They will begin the journey home tomorrow and will be here on Sat. evening. Please continue to pray for them as they say goodbye and start driving.

It figures you'd get a tornado while Calixto was gone! Typical! We'll pray for him & the team

I think Calixto needs to stay home! I'm glad you guys are ok. What did you do about your modem?

No, you just need to go with him!!!! Never stay home, always go. :)

I went by the Hughey house and I saw a tree on someones house. I felt for them. Did you get a new modem?
