All HAIL!!

So we had a big storm yesterday with plenty of lightening, thunder, buckets of rain and yes, even some hail. It didn't really frighten the kids at all until a bolt hit the TV in the playroom. It knocked out the TV, DirecTV receiver and DVD player. It was a loud sound and you could even smell burning plastic if you got close enough. Kaliese jumped at the sound, but Braedyn really had no response for at least 10-15 seconds. At that point, he comes screaming into the room. I thought that was a kind of a late reaction until I heard him wail, "Mom, the TV is broke!"

Anyway, the kids loved watching the hail. That was a different sight for them. They didn't really miss their TV that much, which is a good thing.
