 Hurricane Irene 9/2/2011

We did everything we normally do. Packed up things that would blow around,

stored extra water, bought food, toliet paper and beverage. Kyle made sure the generator was working 

and then we gathered our loved ones.

 They brought animals.  Becky had to work so we had Rocco (Clay was with her in Salisbury).

Lady claimed her spot right away.

Walter had a great time! Katie's Sandy was here too. Poor Kitty was locked in our

bathroom. Rocco was very curious about the kitty cat.

 The kids have grown but they still come:) I love it!!

 Emily and Luke were here for the adventure too.

 Rocco took over Walters bone. Never a dull moment!

 The rain came, the wind came, and it all brought tornados.

We don't get many of those in Delaware but these hit the beach area pretty good. But nothing like out midwest.

Still that was the part that made me the most nervous. You can't predict those thing on where they will go.

Hurricanes you can at least kinda judge.

 Mom's corn had a rough year and this did not help to much. I will probably get picked soon.

 I took my feeder down so it would not be blown off and broke but the humming birds kept coming up to it.

So I put it back up and they ate all through the storm.

 Aron was home:)

 crocs are not a good shoe in the rain.

 I told Patti not to worry about the camper. If it blew across the field  the tree line at Kims would stop it from hitting her house.

I am very glad it stayed put!

And after it was all over and we slept through a peacefully night....Kyle got up and did what he does....

cooked us all a wonderful hot breakfest!

We are so blessed with him!!!!
