Close call

I've come to the conclusion that I don't blog as much as I would like because of work. I sit and stare at a computer all day long. When I come home from work, the last thing I want to do is get back on a computer. I've been wanting to blog about several things lately and just couldn't motivate myself to get on a computer!

So I'm going to have a series of posts with an update on our life over the last couple of weeks.

A couple of weekends ago, Andrew and I went out for an early dinner and came home to relax on a Friday night. We get a knock on the door and it's our neighbor. She said that the fire department just left because a transformer caught on fire and fell near our backyard fence. We went out to look at it and this is what we saw.

Our neighbors told us that the people across the alley from us saw the transformer catch on fire and immediately called the fire department. Apparently they are a little skittish when it comes to fire since the house two doors down from them burned down a few years ago.

God truly has angels watching over us. The garage is directly behind this fence. We would not have seen the fire until our garage was in flames! And no telling what is in the garage that would have blown up! (gas cans, paint cans, etc)

I can only thank the Lord that the damage was so minimal.
