Recovering From Ike






So, we made it through the storm. Everyone can now take a breath and start to clean up. We evacuated to Dallas to stay with my parents, we left middle of the night wed and missed alot of traffic. We are thankful our home didn't get to much damage. Our tree was down and uable to save. There were some missing shingles off the roof and our fence was torn down. We got home Sunday afternoon and other than a few detours traffic was not to bad. Driving through was Houston was insane. It was crazy to see how much damage Ike did. Our House was without power since Friday night and we were hoping to have it back on Sunday when we got home. Not quite that lucky though, we just got power late last night. Thankfully I have husband that is very prepared. We have a generator and while we were in Dallas we got a window unit. We all slept pretty comfortably. Which was nice since I'm pregnant and still having rough days. Of course we always want the baby to sleep through the night. Thank you honey for having a generator and ac!!! This picture of Brooke, she is mad at me because her daddy is outside and she wants to be too. But she just wants to help.....turns to her getting in daddy's way.

I'm so glad that you guys made it through Ike, I kept wondering about it, but never heard anything, so I figured all was well. Is "Coldorado" sounding any better??
