So my mom's house got hit pretty hard by the tornado last Sunday morning. Seth is living back at home and so he was there with my mom during the crazy storm. They saw the tornado coming and climbed in the closet and when they came out here are some of the things they found:
This what the house looks like from the front. There should be a covering over the porch and there shouldn't be those big holes in the roof if you didn't know. Luckily, Nancy (my brother's girlfriend), her family, and some of my brother's friends came out and helped clean up all around the house and farm.
The pool is under that fallen fence. The door is usually hidden by the fence also.
This is the power line down behind the truck.
Due to the roof being ripped off the house they now have a nice sun roof in the closet and puddles in all the front closets of the house. The light normally doesn't show through!
This is one of the 4 barns that are now leveled. Only 1 barn made it through the storm.
Here is the back side of the barn.
This is Burr, our donkey. He was caught under the barn when it collapsed. He is ok but Ginny was not as lucky. She is now in "donkey heaven".
This is my grandparents house. Last time I was there those holes weren't in their house either.
On another note, we are packed and ready to hit the road at 6 am...hopefully. Just pray for safety as Matt drives the really big moving truck! We will update you all as soon as we get there and get internet.
Also here are our new emails:

I'm so glad your fam is ok! Oh, and good luck with the move (today, right?)
Sara Beth! I had no idea tornadoes came through Lizella last week! Thank God your family is okay. Poor Ginny. How long had y'all had her?
Chris and I have been praying for your transition to Wilmore. God is so faithful. These will be some of the best years of your life...guaranteed. I'm almost jealous!
