Flat Stanley Weathers the Storm.

Yesterday started out as a really nice day. We all took a walk downtown to the coffee shop and then to do a little shopping. We intended to stop at a playground on the way home, but a big storm was rolling in. On our walk back home a big wind came up and blew Flat Stanley out of the stroller and into the street. It was lucky that there was a stop light for traffic and I was able to grab him before he met any harm or got blown farther away. Just shortly after we arrived home, the tornado sirens sounded and we all went to the basement to wait for the storm to pass. Thankfully, there was just a short hail storm and then the weather passed and the sun came back for awhile.

Flat Stanley and Kai thought that these shoes would be an excellent choice.

As you can see, Flat Stanley wasn't worried at all.

Flat Stanley and the hail in our driveway!
It was about the size of regular marbles with some shooter marbles size too.
