More crazy weather

After the second insanely destructive thunderstorm in less that a week (this one featuring lightening, thunder, hail and winds that lasted 2+ hours), Josh ran outside to capture the eerie, pumpkin-colored sky at dusk (approximately 8:35).

What a night

Even if you don't live in Chicago, you probably heard about the massive, terrifying storms that hit last night at 8:00 and again at midnight. The village's storm horns were blaring, the rain was coming in sideways and the winds whipped up to 75 miles per hour. Not exactly the ideal atmosphere for putting to bed a 3 1/2 year old with a vivid imagination!

But while my street suffered some downed tree limbs, we got off lucky compared with Catherine, a friend of mine from the Chicago Moms Blog.
