"We decided we better move the girls and right as I grabbed her, our window busted through as her and I were running out, and so I moved them into my room and then my windows started breaking so I had to wake everybody up," she said."We just sat in the living room and I kind of calmed them all down and then the alerts started going off on my phone that baseball-sized hail was coming, so she totally freaked out, but we never got baseball-sized hail, it just kind of slowed down.
