What a wild storm

About 3 am during the night we were awoken by a storm, lots of lightning followed by loud thunder and then the rain came. That would have been fine by itself but then the wind came. I kid you not , the house was shaking something awful. We ended up heading down to the basement for a bit, just in case. Then logan, curled up on my lap, looked at me and sayed "Now can we move back to Australia?" poor kid, better get use to these storms.
We got a bit of water in the garage and through our front door but no damage to the house.

The playset lost its top, could be worse one neighbor's playset tipped over and completely split apart and another's trampoline is completely gone.
One of our beautiful Aspen trees is leaning from the wind
And hopefully this farmers field will bounce back, I am thinking there is a trampoline in there somewhere
Along with this cubby house

Looks like more storms tonight, hopefully we can sleep through these.
On the good side- crayola crayons are 25 cents for a 24 pack at Target- can't beat that
