Both kids woke up to the scary weather super early and no power. It was not safe for Dane to go out and start the generator so we just held them until Dane decided to make a run for it while there was a break. This was just a category 1 hurricane but the wind was HORRIBLE.
We were concerned about our tree in the front yard. We knew it was rotten and had gotten two recommendations to cut it down but hadn't hired anyone to do it yet. I prayed God would take the tree and take it safely. We tried to keep the kids away from the front of the house because I could see the tree rocking side to side. It was very creepy. Dane laid on the big couch in front of the window where the tree was and we had kind of relaxed after he moved the car 3 times. Neighbors trees were falling as well...and we're just sitting there when we hear a creak and a bam! I'll never forget the sound of those those roots breaking free
It just completely lifted the ground around it including the grass
View from porch
It was wild and neighbors came running from both sides and across the steeet to see if we were okay because they heard it also.
God is so faithful. I prayed over the tree and it was minutes later that it perfectly uprooted without harming a house vehicle or person. Thank you Lord
Dane and the neighbors started cutting the fallen trees the same afternoon and taking them to the road
We were so thankful to have a generator and we ran it for a few days. The storm was the 8th and I don't believe we got power until the 13th.
They insisted on a picnic at the trash can and I was too tired to protest. Pick your battles
The sweetest kids in the whole world
Beau Michael loves to play kitchen and wear an apron! Bless his heart! He's getting a blue one for Christmas LOL
Cherished time at the yellow house
July 12, 2024 mama turns ✨30✨ and daddy took her thrifting!
My mother in law was so sweet and had a setup of all my favorite things when we dropped the kids off.
Carolina put her cat in nanas pocket
Two of my thrifts! I also got a gorgeous blue painted milk can
The sweetest birthday message from nana!
Yummy burgers from a local restaurant near Beaumont where we went shopping
Had birthday cake when we picked up the kids
My mom and nana came over and spoiled me with gifts this plaque was one of them
Nana looked perfectly posed on my couch I had to take her picture!
Beau got a box of hand me downs from my best friend! He enjoyed the hats and was excited to go through them, we picked them up while we were out
Another lunch at southern komfort!
Carolina also has an eye for antiques and loves my new milk can
Playing with birthday presents
We were able to find someone to come get the rest of the tree that we couldn't cut because it's the trunk and too big for our chainsaw
We all enjoyed watching.
Giddy up
The muddy aftermath?
No,
The beautiful blessing, thank you Lord ♥️
