And then we saw this.....

Oh my......the sky this evening has been amazingly Gorgeous!  My header photo is just one of the many photos of the evening.   


This photo was taken by one of our very good friends......right after the storm.   There has been NO touching up on these pictures...
This is actually what we saw when looking at the sky!


This is what we first saw.......RAIN!

This is my front walk way and part of the circle drive......
Never have I seen it do this before.


We had some serious rain!!

Totals for the year is above the 30 inch range.

And then there was this.....

  1. Wow that was some storm. I have been in Texas in the spring so I know what those Texas-sized storms are like - tornadoes and all. Beautiful, beautiful rainbow and sunset pictures. God is good! Thanks for sharing!

  4. Shug, the rain this year in Texas has been pretty amazing and so dangerous in some areas. The whole mess in Wimberly is so sad. I'm ready for a bit of sunshine to dry things off, but the forecast doesn't indicate that at the moment.

  6. Glad you are okay. Son Mark called several times last night (and texted) talking about all of the flooding in Houston.. GADS---unbelievable...

    Mark is in Seabrook --and is fine. He even made it to work in Sugarland today. BUT--the worst part was the downtown Houston area... Scary.

    Glad you are not getting flooding.
    Hugs,
    Betsy

  10. How amazing it must've been to see this in person. Wow wow wow. It's incredible the amount of rain Texas is receiving these days. Poor California must be looking on helplessly. But, from what I remember, Texas can always use extra rain. God bless those poor folks getting flooded.

  11. We've gotten lots of rain this year, but it's been in manageable increments unlike what some of Texas is getting. Poor people. The sky shots are incredible. Texas has always been a state of extremes. For many parts of Texas this rain must be answered prayer as the drought has carried on some time now. Stay on high ground.

  13. Im glad you are OK and seeing rainbows. I heard somebody on the radio comment that Texas has been praying for rain for years, but they didn't mean for it to all come at once.

  14. Wow, you Have been getting soaked. My lil sis is down for a visit and she says there's water everywhere...prayers the flooding stops NOW. God has his reasons., some of which we are not meant to understand.
    I do see HE has blessed you with gorgeous sunsets and breathless rainbows.
    Stay dry and thanks so much for stopping by. I missed you while I was taking a long winter's nap.
