Funky Weather

This area has been keeping us entertained with some wild weather this summer.

We've had a few good thunderstorms...

 ...which we took advantage of playing in.  Our neighbors must think the crazies have moved in.
 Then we got a couple of wicked hail storms.  During the first, the kids and I were on the freeway driving back from Boise.  It was a crazy, slow drive back and we were grateful to make it safely.  Jaron got a few pictures of what the storm looked like back at the house:




 The second storm only lasted 15 minutes but transformed our front yard to this:


Needless to say, much of the area's crops are toast and ours and the surrounding counties declared state of emergencies to get some help for the farmers.  So sad!
