We decided since it was such a nice day to take the kids to one of our local lakes here. What we didn't know was that a storm was really close to us. It was only a 30% chance when we left the house so we thought we were in the clear. Once we got to the lake we noticed across from us it was getting dark. It gradually got darker and we heard thunder far off in the distance. We took a few pictures and then went for a very short walk.
Notice the sky is darker in this picture!
After we took this picture we walked about a foot into the woods when lightening struck right by us and scared us all half to death! Dave grabbed Alana, who was terrified, and I grabbed Tyler, who thought the noise was actually pretty cool, go figure! You could hear the crackling of the lighting and the thunder was so loud that our ears were ringing. Very scary!
We took Alana back to the lake to show her that won't happen every time we go there. She kept asking if she was brave. And we told her yes that she was brave. And even when you are being brave it is okay to be a little bit scared.
