dallas

last weekend the husband and i flew out to dallas texas for our worlds finest chocolate meeting. I think i gained at least 5 lbs from tasting all the delicious chocolate. :) it was a fun weekend but we stayed so so so busy that we didn't get much time to enjoy the city! we will go back soon i am sure and maybe next time we will get to meet up with some friends and hang out some.

the tornado

yes thats right people. a F2 tornado came through my neighborhood yesterday. it was the scariest thing i have ever heard in my whole life!!! ok, so get this...i was on my way out the door to go run! yeah, a friend of mine text messaged me just after i had laced up the ole nike's and told me that the news said for my area to take shelter. i was trying to run out the door to avoid rain. thank goodness i got that message! my dogs were howling and we all ran and got in the shower and covered our heads. complete damage all over our hood. HUGE trees fell all over our streets and through many many houses. we had winds at 110 mph. it was so scary and i am so thankful that i was ok and everyone i know around here is ok. i am not sure if anyone was hurt but i know alot of people are homeless right now. i will post pics of our hood as soon as i can get some!
