Summer Storm

Yesterday our friends, Erin & Matt, came over to hang out and grill. They brought their dog Wrigley (otherwise known as Laila's BF). We watched football, let the dogs play outside, and later we grilled pizzas on the grill. Those were delicious by the way!

Later on in the evening, it started getting rainy and then began storming. We knew some severe storms were coming through and the weather channel wasn't lyin'. There were some ridiculously heavy winds going on, which is always worrisome because we have such huge trees in our area. Erin and I were in the living room in the front of the house when all of a sudden we heard something large hit the house. We ran screaming from the room, of course. A big branch had fallen and knocked our gutter partially off. Luckily it didn't seem to damage my car, which was parked right near where the branch fell.
The branch that hit our gutter
Lots of leaf debris going on!
Lots of branches down in the backyard
Luckily nothing came down that's too big for us to handle!

We have some large branches down, but nothing too bad- luckily! After the storm died down yesterday, we went out to get ice cream. There were some really large branches down in and around our neighborhood. I'm sure everyone will be out cleaning up their yards today!
