Gone with the wind...

Just as we sat down to eat dinner last night...a crazy wind, rain, hail storm cycled through our backyard. The kids watched the backyard toys get tossed here and there and began to get a little bit worried about the trampoline. I assured them that the trampoline wouldn't be picked up by the wind...it was too heavy and the wind wasn't strong enough to pick it up.

Not five minutes later...we watched the wind pick it up and slam it against our neighbors house!!!!

We all rushed to the window to check to make sure it hadn't shattered any of their glass windows or doors. It was really hard to see through the rain...so Jason had to brave the elements and make sure everyone was okay.

Thankfully...no one was hurt.

Unfortunately...it did break their outside lamp, their screen door

and put several large holes in their siding!

And sadly...there will be no more children jumping on our trampoline!

The wind was strong enough to snap the medal frame clear through.

So jumping in knee deep gully washers will have to be our new past time!
