Sound of Silence...

 It's not too often we all take naps anymore - at all.  Apparently at Mary Lou's we all nap at the same time every day.  Mary Lou swears she doesn't use a chemical substance on us to make this possible but Mama swears she must because how the honky tonk do you do that on a consistent basis?  By some miracle we actually all DID rest together and Mommy and Daddy got approximately 12 minutes of silence...

 ...but what is this?  Oh, JACK!  Of COURSE you are awake!

 Could not be happier to be awake at this fine moment snuggled up next to his biggest Sissy.
*Insert your own caption here* - what a funny little face.
We hope you all had a great week.  Mama realizes it's been over a week since she posted but again with the wah, wah, wah we're busy.
Notably this week - a tornado touched down less than a 1/4 of a mile from the house!  Now THAT was scary!  You should see how many huge trees either fell down or were snapped like toothpicks.  We are so, so, so lucky that 1. we weren't home (Mommy was but the rest of us were gone) so 2. no one got hurt and 3. the tornado didn't actually touch down in our yard thus destroying our trees and roof.  Mama heard the winds got to be about 100 MPH.  That is INSANE!
So since we've lived in Louisville we've had: hurricane (yep, hurricane remnants blew through - ask Grammy and Grampa - Grampa about got clobbered with a big ol' tree limb from that storm), worst ice storm in history of Kentucky, one of the worst snow storms, torrential rain and floods, and a tornado! 
On the plus side, it's going to be in the 50's all week.  We'll take that!
Love,
Lilly, Anna and Jack
