May Day

Woof Bloggers,
Wow, last night was scary. It got really dark in the afternoon and the weather dude kept coming on TV to talk about storms. Then in the evening Mom was watching her hockey game when suddenly the tornado sirens started screaming. We don't like those sirens at all. We were barking and whining and pacing so Mom and Dad took us all downstairs to our safe room. The big TV is down there so Mom could watch her game and still keep track of the weather dudes.
 Then she turned the game off and just listened to the weather dude because he said there was a tornado about two blocks away heading toward us. We stayed downstairs for a couple hours till the storms were past. Then Mom and Dad gave us our bedtime yogurt and rushed us outside. It was dark and windy and raining so we hurried to pee, then came right back inside to get toweled off.

It was kind of hard to get to sleep but the thunder and wind quieted down finally and we got some sleep. I slept right beside Mom so that she'd keep me safe. 

This morning came and the sun was shining. It's really wet outside but there's no storm damage in our yard. It's May Day today so we're sending some pretty flowers your way. Here's our Bleeding Heart plant. Mom has been trying to kill this plant for twelve years and it still keeps coming back bigger and better each year. 
These pretty white flowers were planted by our bird friends and are popping up all over the yard. Dad tries to mow around them because they're so happy looking. 

Here's the first rosebud of the year. It won't be long before the rose bush is covered with red flowers.
 The Hostas are up but they won't have flowers till later in the summer.
Mom was playing with her sticks and strings. What do you think she's making?
 If you guessed a little me, then you were right.
 I don't think it looks much like me, do you?
Keep Wagging, Mackey

We were very thankful to have missed all the severe weather, but we did get a lot of rain, lots of flooded streets around here.

We love mini-Mackey:)

Glad that storm--at least the tornado part--missed you! Love the Mini Mackey!

Oh my, that would scare us clear out of the state. It must have been nice to wake up to such a pretty world.

Actually, I think Mom made a pretty good likeness of you! She sure is good at using those sticks and strings. There were tornadoes about 7 miles from here a week or so ago. Fortunately for all of the peeps where the tornado touched down, it only went about 3 miles, and seems to have done very little damage, since all the news dudes could find was a tree on a porch and a tree on a car. It was very lucky.

Happy May to you and all the pack!
