So this past couple of weeks we have had some MAJORLY crazy weather here in Denver! It has been an unusually wet spring/summer, and we have had some CRAZY weather! Last Sunday we were enjoying our afternoon when it started to hail just a bit. We went outside to try and decide if we should cover our garden with a tarp, thinking that the hail would stop shortly. We decided to and Cole was out there diligently covering our crop so that it wouldn't be lost to the elements. GOOD THING TOO! It started hailing like I seriously have NEVER seen it hail before! GOLF BALL SIZED! Most weren't that size, but there were definitely some that were! It was the craziest thing ever. Our garden- luckily- is no worse for the wear and we didn't lose anything- unlike alot of people that we have talked to! It has been doing this off and on for a while now, and it sure is annoying! We want to go swimming already! But we are glad for the moisture. But seriously, bring on the sun! The boys need to go to Elitch's!
One of the biggest pieces of hail that we found. Lincoln kept calling it a HELL storm. We couldn't figure out why. I wonder what they're teaching him in nursery! This picture was also after it had melted a little bit, so you can imagine!
A couple of different sizes...all big! Sheesh!
SORRY! The movie won't upload. It's been a while trying to upload, but I just don't have the patience. Who does anyways? Just believe me when I say it was SO crazy! It looked like we had white mexican jumping beans- REALLY BIG ONES- in our yard and all over our deck! So crazy!

I would hate to get caught in the hail. I;m glad that your garden is safe:)
We were at church when it hailed. My poor little garden got beat up! There were big holes in my squash leaves and the hail ripped all the leaves off some of my tomatoes! They were just getting so big! :(
