Save the kitties!!
Cedar Rapids- about a 15-20 minute drive North from our house.
I think this is a town further from Cedar Rapids, but Cedar Rapids is getting hit the hardest of all the places in Iowa.
This is a bridge in Cedar Rapids. The water levels are way too high and since this picture they have continued to rise so it's now closed. I use to take this bridge to get to my rotation every day last month, luckily that rotation is over so I don't have to go anywhere near it.Our house is safe, although there are many people having to evacuate their homes in areas North of us (Cedar Rapids) and South-East of us (Iowa City) along with other cities. Other people and businesses are without power. Many are working day and night to fill sandbags to try and protect their homes. Shelters have opened up, free tetanus shots are being offered, one hospital is out of power that I know of....and it pours even now as I write this.
I thank God Chris and I are safe and I pray for those whose homes and businesses are being affected-may they find their comfort and security in Him.

Glad you're okay sis! When I was watching the news this morning and I heard Iowa was flooded I, of course, immediately said, "ANA"! Good to hear your voice this morning and I pray that you two are always safe... in God's hands. Love you sis!
Wowsers! That is so close to your house! I can see Angels sitting at the four corners of your house. And one on the roof with a BIG bucket!
Thanks family! You guys are cool :) I just found out that my rotations and test next week are cancelled until further notice because of the roads being closed to get to school. hmm...
