Uh... mini tornado?

Ok, so I don't know what happened yesterday, all I know was I was in my house and trees started falling from the sky. I heard crack, splat and boom and I looked out the window and trees and huge branches were falling down on houses and cars! I could hear branches blowing against our house. With in a few minutes this is some of the damage that was done. All of these pictures were taken from houses on our block. This picture below is in our back yard. That truck got badly dented and the red car too.

Do you see that big branch in the back? When I looked out our front door I saw that branch fall about 1 foot in front of our car. I freaked out, our bran new car! I stupidly I ran outside with tornado like winds and branches falling every where and moved my car into the garage. At least our car was safe.

This is a picture of a house just right around the corner from us.

This house is so sad. It is a beautiful home and a huge tree fell right through the roof. You can't really see the damage to the house from this picture but you can see how big the tree is. Can you believe a wind did that?!

While all of this was going on Enrique was at school. I called him freaking out. I told him about the trees falling from the sky and our power was out so I wasn't able to see the news and I had no idea what was going on. My super energetic husband responded with, "Huh.." And if you know Enrique, you know that is a typical response. Nothing excites him, not even his pregnant wife being trapped in a storm. I found out later he thought I was exaggerating (I never exaggerate!) because nothing really happened at the school.
