rock and roll

that's what we did yesterday morning. Had a bit of an earthquake (5.4 I think). We were at my parent's house because I took the kids over there while I was at the doctors office. We all sat there looking at each other because normally it stops before you even have time to get up. This one seemed to keep getting stronger so my Dad said okay lets get in the doorway. Ms. K went right over to my Dad but, Mr. B wasn't quite sure what to do. He had fallen on the ground next to the fireplace and objects were falling off the the fireplace. He just froze so I grabbed him and off we went. Luckily my parents had no damage to their house and nothing was broken. The kids stuck right next to me for the next 30 minutes and Mr. B kept saying "but that was my first one". About an hour later he changed his mind and kept saying "that was awesome!" We were only a couple of miles from the epicenter and they are still trying to determine which fault line it was on (between 2 fault lines). There is one that runs about a half mile from my parents house and they think it could have been that one that was moving. Lovely! We got home to check out our house and the only thing broken was a picture frame that had fallen off the fireplace. Pretty lucky! Off to get new school shoes for Ms. K becasue school starts on Tuesday!
