COLD Weather & A Furniture Disaster

This morning we woke up to COLD weather. I think the thermostat on the truck said 36 when we went to church this morning, but the wind was what was so bad! About 1:30 this morning we woke up to horrible wind! We had some boxes in the carport that need to be carried back upstairs and I had to go out at 1:30 this morning and move them to the back of the carport because they were getting soaked by the blowing rain. I don't think I've ever seen wind & rain that wild before except in a hurricane!

This afternoon Michael and Blake went to Dothan to get the hutch that we found yesterday. The lady at the store had them load it a certain way so that the mirror wouldn't bang on the bed of the truck and break. Instead, the hutch flew out the back of the truck, cleared a lane of traffic and landed in the turn lane, but the mirror didn't break! Needless to say the hutch is not housing our china tonight like I had hoped. When they got to the house with it we decided to see if there was any way it could be salvaged. We called a guy in our church who does woodwork and took it to his house. He's going to look it over tomorrow and give us a call. I just hope he can salvage it without sinking too much more money into it!

The dreaded picture Michael sent me when I didn't believe that it fell out of the truck!

I hope it's fixable!

While Blake & Michael were gone Julia had some exersaucer fun!

Needless to say we didn't make the Christmas Cantata at church tonight, but we did get Julia all bundled up to go see about the hutch! This outfit is actually an outfit that we gave Sararh for her first Christmas. I think Julia looks pretty darn cute in it too!
