Ruh-Roh!

Yikes! Look what happened at my parents' house today:



It's crazy! I haven't seen it in person yet; my Mom sent these to me by email. The timing is ridiculous! They just had, like, 30 trees cut down all around the yard just a few weeks ago! And this tree, along with half a dozen more in the front yard were scheduled to be cut down in a week or two. They were waiting for the ground to freeze so the trucks wouldn't completely tear up the lawn. Oops!



In the photo above--the downstairs window pierced by a limb is the family room. The couch is right next to that window. Finn plays there all the time and my Mom sits on that couch and watches him. The windows above the front door is Finn's bedroom--where he naps. Luckily no one was home when this happened.

Below is the bedroom where Finn sleeps when he stays at their house. Talk about scary!





Well. They saved the lawn and lost the roof. And the siding. And the windows. Man, that sucks.

Eileen! thats aweful! I'm SO glad everyone is okay. I'm sure the snow coming today isn't going to help much either. Best of luck to your parents getting it all fixed.
