Good Friday

Easter weekend started out a bit crazy with the tornadoes in Murfreesboro. Mom, Jody, Emme, and I were actually at Opry Mills during the bad weather. Landon, Dad, and Will kept calling us and telling us to stay put. Jemina could not believe that we were out. Anyways, Nashville was spared, but our hearts go out to Murfreesboro. Landon's step-brother, Daniel, and his wife Ashley's house was destroyed. Everything but their bedroom was demolished. Thank the Lord they are OK. Daniel is getting his master's at MTSU and usually goes home for lunch, but met a friend instead and Ashley was at work in Nashville. We are so glad they were not home. They have two dogs. Daniel rescued their bulldog and in the process cut his wrists up pretty good (he had to get stitched up). They were missing Gaby their other dog. Two days later they found her. She was fifteen miles away with a lady who's mother lived in the neighborhood Daniel and Ashley live in. David, Landon's stepfather went the next day and helped Daniel get some things together and told Landon and I that the TV did not do it justice. He said that it was like a war zone. Anyways, we are so glad they are OK, but I cannot get the Bryant family out of my mind. That is the mother and nine week old daughter that were killed. I do not have any pictures for this post, but just wanted to let you know what was going on.
