CRaZy Weather

 We have had flooding here in Burlington for the past month, it receded for a couple weeks and now it's flooding again. These pictures are from the first time it flooded a month or so ago.
 

We have had several tornado watches - which if anybody knows me, freaks me out! The other day we had a horrible storm and the entire time during the storm I kept thinking we are fine - we haven't heard the sirens so it can't be that serious. The kids and I walked out to the front porch to see what was happening, and we saw several people driving and a cable employee get out in front of our house and walk around, so no worries. Right then our neighbors huge tree in front of us snapped! We ran inside to find the electricity out and headed for the basement. The siren had been going off and we couldn't hear it!!!
 Passing the time during the storm with a super healthy toxic snack.
 And then as if it couldn't get any more exciting!!! we had a small electrical fire down our lane in the tree branches!
The storm felt similar to the December storm in Bountiful that knocked down all the trees. The aftermath has been sad to see, with all the beautiful trees torn apart.
