Monica, our prayers are with you. My daughter Chasity and her husband Chris lives in the town of Pulaski. When we spoke, she said their window got busted in by the storm last night, and they haven't had electricity since yesterday evening. They are ok and not injured.

Yes Janet, that is what happens when your mind jumps ahead of you LOL!! Thanks for the congrats everyone :) We had an eventful anniversary. We had to work last night and if any of you haven't heard we were in tornado valley yesterday evening up through the night. From what I've heard we had 1(for sure), possibly 2 tornadoes in the town of Pulaski, 1 in Draper, 1 in Willis (Floyd County) and 1 in Bluefield that was headed this way but never heard anything else about that one. There is so much area in the town of Pulaski and the County around the town that is blocked off by law enforcement. The National Guard has been called in to help and a state of emergency has been called. I've heard that two areas are no more pretty much, they were leveled. There is a lot of damaged but only minimal injuries have been reported and no fatalities Praise the Lord!! I found myself praying at work, while we were just waiting to see what was going to happen next, not only for our safety but the people around these tornadoes. Dad's sister and one of his brothers live in the town and at this time we weren't sure what had been hit. Pulaski is only about 8 minutes from us and Draper maybe 10 minutes. We had several bad thunderstorms here with hail and it seemed like it was lightening constantly for 5 hours. If yal want to see any of this the local news websites are WSLS.com and WDBJ.com. Mark says we're in for round 2 this evening with tornado and thunderstorm warnings/watch until 9 and as I type this I can hear the thunder rolling. Keep us in your prayers as always. Love to all :)

Sorry we did'nt get more pictures posted. the connection is slowwwwww here. will post more when we get home. Love to you all from Timmy and Cindy

Why you should read the blog from the bottom up

I started reading (skimming) at the top and saw congrats to Mark and Monica as well as Andy and Kim.  So I immediatly scrolled down to see if we were getting new additions to the family, only to realize it is only their anniversary.  I was a little disappointed!  Congratulations anyway on your anniversary! 

Tim and Cindy, Congratulations!  I knew why conrats were in order for you two!  LOL 

Is anyone surprised that MSHA is all over Cobalt?  They are probably part of the huge fan base, just like we are.  Fortunatly, they made enough money from this production that they can afford to pay any fines that may come up.  Haha

Welcome to the Family Cindy,Hope you and Tim will be very happy. Love you both.

Welcome to the family Cindy. Good luck and God bless to you both. Tim, I liked the pic of you and Kelsey. Isn't she soooo cute.

Welcome to the Family..You can't say you didn't know what you were gettin' in to! Is that Pilot Mountain, NC? It looks like it. Timmy, you know what they say...The Third time is a charm.
Blain watched "Coal" for the first time last night. The first thing he said was, "They ain't wearin' their Safety Glasses." and from there it went on and on. When they started runnin' out of the mines at the end, he came off of the couch and said, "Now that's Drama." It is fun to watch it with him bc he explains alot. But he said, most of it was the real deal!

Emily~  You are a natural!  Those pictures were great and better than anything I could have gotten anywhere else.  I plan to do some advertising for you when I show off these pictures that your mom made me. 

Trish~  I love the Easter basket and thanks for "enduring" my kids yesterday. 

For all of you "COAL" fans, Matthew works on the jacks that go on that miner and the scoop.  I didn't know this until last week.  I wasn't really sure what he did~  LOL!   Anyway, is anyone else out there thinking that Andy should just run the mine by himself?  Next week...drug testing!  Should be interesting. 

Thanks to all of you that were praying for us yesterday.  It was so much harder than I imagined it could be.  Teresa, Steve, and Elliot, thank you for being there.  Steve, I especially appreciate you wearing suspenders for my benefit.  It was very moving:)   

Love to you all!    

Janet
