Hurricane Pictures

Pictures below from Tuesday evening.  We escaped any damage of consequence - just some little things to clean up and fix.  We were lucky.

This house is about 4 blocks south of us. 
Big tree across street with utility lines it took down.
Our driveway with fallen branches.

Looking along our street at piles of brush and branches.  

we are safe

friends and family--

Just a quick note to let you all know that we are safe and out of Houston. Luckily, we were heading out of town this weekend anyway for Houston Family vacation up in Lake Travis. The are not planning on evacuating Houston, but we're glad to be out of there.

All is well--we're all keeping a close eye on things back home and are keeping fingers crossed that we have limited damage to the house. I think that I'd rather NOT be in the house if a tree fell or windows got blown out.

big girl bed

Big things are happening around here.....Lilly has moved up in the world and is now sleeping in a big girl bed. We built the bunk beds over the weekend and had the first test drive tonight. Evidently it was comfy enough that she didn't want to get out. I had given it 10 minutes before we saw her in the kitchen.

testing it out yesterday

snuggling under the covers has not yet been figured out.....
