One wild night!

This is how we found our trampoline today after 80 mile an hour straight line winds last night.

This is how far away from our house we found it....Our house sits behind the tree line. Apparently the wind lifted it over the trees and tossed it into more trees!

And after we went "redneck" and hitched the trampoline to the truck to drag it back into our yard, it looked like this! We did try to take it apart in the field, but it was so damaged we realized how futile those attempts were.

Hurricane Ike removed this same piece of vinyl in 2008.... at least we are consistent!

Anyone find shingles laying around? I seem to be missing a few!

Oh and a few more......
I pulled the kids into my bathroom with pillows for additional shelter at 12:15am when the storm really hit. It was pretty intense for a few minutes. I am praising God this was the extent of damage and we are all safe today.

Of course, not to be outdone by mother nature, Ty created his own storm of sorts today as well........

Last year's painted eggs.....

This year's "balls"

because the basket makes a great "hat"!

This is why he is so stinking cute!
