Update to the Earlier Post Today

Quick update now that we have surveyed the damage...

I was mistaken about the trampoline identification...what looked like the net in the neighbors' front yard was actually our trampoline and net in a big jumbled mess, minus the leg braces. There were actually 3 trampolines total! And I'm not so sure that our trampoline hit our house, not that it really matters.

Also, the neighbors' overhang that ripped off (it was long-angled) flew over his house and hit the neighbor's house behind him and crashed through the roof of their kitchen. It was a fairly large, flat structure, which might be what I saw in the lightning. Then it traveled over that house and landed on top of their new vehicle. Super.

Again, material things.

And just now I was gathering some of Tye's laundry when I realized that the gash in the side of the house actually broke through the sheet rock of his room. Still not a huge deal in the big scheme of things. It measures about 18-20 inches wide and as you can see, it is right along where the wall and ceiling meet. It looks like there might be a little damage to the ceiling too. I still can't believe the child slept right through it!

Jenni - You certainly don't live a dull life. We are glad to hear that you are all okay - and I'm happy to know I'm not the only one with children who could sleep through anything! Take care. Teak
