Our First Typhoon


We survived our first typhoon! We woke up to the the phone ringing at 5:00am telling us school was cancelled. The kids were disappointed because it was "spirit day" and they had fun outfits planned. So instead, we spent the day indoors playing games and watching shows. However, by late afternoon, the kids were restless. It was still raining, but the wind had died down quite a bit, so I took a chance and walked them to the local AM/PM mini mart where everyone could pick an ice cream. We love Japanese ice cream treats. The one they are eating here is like a crunchy Eggo-waffle with vanilla ice cream and a thin layer of hard chocolate in the center. Yum!

Notice Jonas' Power Ranger gloves... ice cream tastes better wearing Power Ranger gloves!

It's too funny to me that what I worry about are tornados here in Bloomington and you are trying to survive typhoons! Stay safe!
