Morning Surprise

This morning at 6am we had a powerful storm go through.  You would think that since it is January that it would have been a snowstorm - no it was a Severe Thunderstorm.  Reese and I both woke up and turned on the news to see if we were under a tornado warning.  The wind was gusting at around 60mph.   Reese heard a loud noise and went to check it out.  A tree branch had fallen on our patio.  We are very lucky it fell on the patio and not on our roof.  The branch fell from very high up in the tree.   Here are a few pictures.  Looks like we get to borrow a chain saw to get it cleaned up.  Feeling very fortunate this morning that all we have are some branches to take care of and not a hole in the roof!
