a crazy night.

On Thursday night, our little family packed up our gear to go to Jacob's first soccer game of the new season. We headed away from the storm near our house to the beautiful weather at the soccer park. We weren't there very long when all the talking and whistles and noise from the games stopped to hear the tornado sirens. One of the officials ran through the fields yelling for the parents to get out of the park because of lightning and a possible tornado. That really wasn't that scary. What was eerie though, was seeing hundreds and hundreds of parents grabbing their kids and running off the fields to their cars. It was like a scary movie. We had to wait in our truck for a long time before we could get out of our spot. When we did finally drive back to town, our truck was hit with hail so loud that we couldn't even hear each other talking. Here's what we found when everything calmed down. The kids were sure school would be cancelled because of all the ice.=)
