holy hail, batman

we had a really nice day today. well, not weather wise. its been damp and dreary for days. but we went to church and then headed to my in-law's house. okay, so maybe it wasn't that nice, because we were all bummed that louisville lost! but we had a feast and then cake with ice-cream which helped the pain go away. as we were heading home, of course, I am alerted of a work issue. it would be an abnormal sunday if I did not need to log on for something. at any rate, we get home. I run upstairs, log on, assess the work situation and then all the sudden the sky looks wacky and I hear all this noise coming from outside. I look out the window and we have huge pieces of hail falling from the sky. it was so freaky. these pictures do not do the size of the hail justice as we immediately had a down pour and thunderstorm after the hail storm and I did not take these until it was safe to go outside. yes, I turn into a scared puppy dog when storms roll through. me and claire where shaking in our boots :)




p.s. my date night was awesome. our dinner was yummy as we enjoyed some panera treats which included broccoli/cheddar soup (one of the only ways I can get veggies in double l) and a chocolate chip muffin top which we split! we did Easter crafts and made homemade cards for everyone and danced to our favorite songs. then retired to the couch for snuggles and some tigger & pooh. after double l's bath, I wanted some more snuggle time while I read him books, but he just wanted to dive in his crib & go to sleep. so, I curled up on the couch and relaxed with a glass of wine.
