Storm Aftermath

So we had a pretty bad storm here in Phoenix Thursday night. Gia's school had no power on Friday, so she got to stay home! Snow days? We have Monsoon days here, I guess

Yikes! Sure looks gorgeous there now! How is Gia liking school??

At least all the heavy rain made things really green!

Gia loves school. When she comes home, all she wants to do is play "teacher". At least that way we know exactly how her teacher teaches....she copies her to a T!

despite the damage, its pretty there! You should take more pics when trees arent trying to take out cars :P (it looks a lot like what we saw of cali, but prettier :))

I have a bunch of pictures of houses that I took while out on this little drive. The homes are amazing and I will post those soon. This area of Phoenix is really beautiful and people overlook it.

Wow! Lots of trees are down.

It's amazing! HUGE trees....just cracked in half! Then there were tons of power poles that fell down too! Some people still don't have their power back on.

DAYUM.

My grandmother must have missed the worst of it, cause I've talked to her a couple times since then and she's mentioned nothing of it.

Glad you're OK.

It really hit Central Phoenix and Tempe the worst. Usually Central Phoenix gets nothing when it rains...but that night, we got the worst of it! It's just so sad to see such mature trees gone! You know how it is, there aren't that many big trees around as it is!

Thanks!

I know...it's just like nothing we've ever had here before!
