Thunder Storms!

I love thunder storms! Ever since I was a little girl I would love to cuddle up in my bed and watch the thunder and lighting outside the window. Also, if it was storming bad enough we (my brothers and I) would get to set up camp in our parents room and pretend like we were really scared! Growing up in Houston, we had lots of storms, and my bed sat right next to the window in my room. Sometimes I would wake up in the middle of the night and just stare out my window. God is the creator of all things even storms! I would watch the trees blow back in forth in the wind and try to figure out which direction the rain was falling and then of course figure out if I could go to school the next day by how much flooding there was! (I only recall one or two times that I actually couldn't make it to school though :(! ) Anyways, Last night Brad and I woke up to a crazy thunderstorm! The wind was howling and blowing hard and the thunder and lighting were clashing and striking outside! I watched out my window for a little bit when I heard a loud BANG! My first thought was that it was a trash can blowing over, but since it wasn't trash day and the BANG was really much to loud to be a trash can, I thought of what else it could be... Side Note: For Brad's birthday I got him a brand new grill! We have had so much fun cooking together as he grills chicken or steak and I make the other dishes in the kitchen. It has been great!... Ok back to the BANG! The GRILL, I looked over at Brad who was also awake by this point and I said, "we should have brought your grill in tonight." He shot out of bed, went out side, and brought his baby inside, safe and sound. I got up and followed to also make sure the grill was ok, which of course it was! Unfortunately, the old grill saw its last day and is no longer on all fours as it lays face down on our covered patio, completely busted. RIP old grill, you never really cooked our burgers all the way through. In Conclusion, I love Thunderstorms and the big BANG theory was actually our old grill crashing to its death.

maya is terrified of thunderstorms and since she is mute the only thing she knows to do is put her front paws on the bed and put her face 2" from mine and stare me down until i wake up and comfort her. it is much creepier than the thunderstorm itself.
