Storms in Oklahoma

Just a note that we all survived the crazy storms that raged through the state yesterday. Precautions were taken as tornadoes were all around the surrounding area, but none touched down in Stillwater. We had rain, hail, lightning, and thunder; we did NOT have electicity. Our power was only out for about 3 hours though. We played in the bathroom for a while, stayed tuned to the radio, and then picnicked on a blanket in the living room with PB/J sandwiches for dinner when we were in the clear, but still without power. The kids seemed to enjoy the adventure, but Rachel and Cole seemed a bit confused (and frustrated) that lights weren't coming on when they would flip the switch. Grandma Kroll had picked Robbie up from school, so she got the join the fun in the bathroom for a while too before she had to leave for work (which was after the all clear came through).
