Tornado Warning!

Oh my goodness! We have not even been in Nebraska a week and we've already had two tornado sirens go off. Okay, so the first we slept through but that still counts! Last night a huge storm came in with big dark clouds and sure enough the siren goes off. (We were right in the middle of making dinner). I go outside because I wanted to see what other people in the complex were going to do. There were some others out on their balconey's watching the storm. Scott just wanted to get in the bathtub and stay in for the night, but I started seeing families head down to the tornado shelter in our complex with blankets and bags. As it starts getting really rainy, windy,and dark, I figured my husband has only been here a short time and these people live in Nebraska full time so I'm gonna follow them. No offense hun. We grabbed some things for the diaper bag and a blanket, put Tyson in his car seat and go. It was quite an experience being in that shelter. It was wet and smelled bad. I found that my complex has some pretty interesting, if not redneckish, people in it. I figure none of them read my blog so it's okay. We were there for about an hour (spending our time thinking how we should have brought camping chairs..oh well), listening to the sirens go off and then back on and then off and on. Finally we decide it's safe to leave, mostly because other people were leaving too. Once we get home, the siren goes on again and so we sit in the bathtub and end up having Spaghettios for dinner. I love Nebraska.
