Jackson, TN Tornado

Thanks for all of the calls and emails about the tornado here on Tuesday night. You all know how I feel about storms. Once you pair that with going down into a cellar and shutting & chaining the door- I was a near panic attack. BUT, we are all safe and sound, and Praise God that no students were killed in the UU damage. Y'all, there is no way to explain the devastation on that campus. CNN doesnt do it justice.

Here's all that we encountered at the house.... no major damage...we consider ourselves blessed, and since Mattie has no backyard, she is taking full advantage of being an "inside dog".





Please continue to pray for the students, the international students here are concerned with Visas, etc. and EVERYONE will be looking for housing for the rest of the semester.

Good Lord! You are a trooper for sure. Tell Maddie that if she needs Scott and Sadie to come teach her how to be an inside dog they will be more than happy to. I'm really glad you guys were okay!

No kidding, we were praying for you guys that night! We are so glad you are ok. Let us know if you need help rebuilding fences... after our floor demolition project we probably have all the necessary tools!
