But the Little House (and all her residents) are a-okay!

 No worse for the wear, but LOTS of flooding! (all outside the house)

Luckily, the tornadoes went around our little neighborhood, but to be safe, Gus, Rocky and I went and took shelter in an underground parking lot during the worst parts...

And, no, I do NOT let Rocky drive... not after what happened last time... nope, never again...

After about an hour, Chris left work, came to pick me up (so we could leave my car in the hail-free safety zone and put his in the garage) and headed home.

Rocky was upset he couldnt fit in the front seat seeing is how he's scared of storms.

At times, I SERIOUSLY think he forgets how large he is...

 And there was the fact that we were driving in this...
Even though we didnt see any tornadoes, we did see TONS of nasty weather...
And throughout Dallas County, there has been some pretty bad damage.
 It seriously breaks my heart and definitely reminds me to get on my knees and say some HUGE Thank You prayers that my family and friends here in Dallas are all safe and sound.

Here is an UNBELIEVABLE video of some semi's being thrown around like micro-machines...
 THAT is insane...

 My co-worker lives in Coppell (a Dallas suburb) and she got hit with some HUGE hail... she sent us these pictures:

 Seriously! It looked like it snowed in her front yard! Apparently the hail was the size of eggs!

Chris and I are going to keep an eye on the weather (still lots of lightening and thunder around here) but wanted to let everyone know we were all ok... ... ... except Gus... He's having a hard time with the storm and is refusing to get off my lap...
 Poor pooka... ... ... ... and yes, apparently my "tornado gear" outfit consists of a fedora and Katniss Everdeen side-braid.

What about you guys? Are all my other fellow Dallas bloggers safe? Anyone else have family down here that got hit hard?  Please say a big prayer for us as DFW recovers!
