What do you do when there's a tornado in Texas...1st go outside and look at the sky, then don your bicycle helmet of course!
All kidding aside, of course the most recent tornado warning came when Adam was out of town. Fortunately, we knew a few days in advance there was potential so we had a heads up. Since our tornado shelter under the stairs also doubles as our pantry, Marley and I had some work to do. We figured we should put the canned goods off the shelf and out in the hallway. (Nobody wants to survive a tornado only to be taken out by a can of peas!)
When the time came to actually take cover I told Marley to go put on some shoes and she came back with shoes...and her bicycle helmet. I about doubled over laughing, but then again, she was probably the smart one. Charlie took some serious convincing to join us, and by convincing I mean dragging into the pantry. After about 30 minutes in the pantry Marley decided we might as well snack while we were in there...whatever entertains you girlie!
We were luckily not in the path of the tornado, but others weren't so lucky not far from us. We are so thankful to God that nobody was seriously injured and we were safe and sound.
