Holy-Giant-Balls-of-Hail-Batman!

Last week we were shocked out of our lackadaisical Sunday afternoon by a sudden and freak hail storm. It didn't last more than a few minutes but the size of the hail was shocking. Richard reconsidered going outside when his hand was immediately hit by a huge ice ball! We got the pictures of the hail in Richard's hands after it stopped.
We all stood at the windows in awe of this awesome display and amazing feat of Mother Nature...after all, we've had recent temperatures as high as 113 degrees. Guess that's why they call it Climate Change!




Because there is a serious cockroach issue in India almost everywhere you go you will notice little white moth balls in all the drains of bathrooms, sinks and showers. After taking the these pictures Little T says "They look like the toilet thingees Mom". We all had a good chuckle about that!

It's a good thing you weren't outside in the middle of it.

Can you imagine the damage golf size hail can do to cars,flowers and such? So glad we have a carport. You could have sent your kids out in it and told them it was their punishment for not sending G-Ma an email. Love ya tons!!
