here comes a famous taryn catch up...

SPLASH!!


Look how wet I am now mom!


Playing in the fountains at our local mall. Since the hurricane has come the weather has been nice. But this was the weekend before and it was hot and I'm afraid we will be getting back to more of this weather soon.

Our Ike Update

We are all great. We had an exciting night trying to decide how to get the boys to sleep and when things were going to really hit. I got to hear lots of it because I was trying to sleep on a twin mattress in the laundry room with both boys. It was loud, you could tell there were some strong winds and lots of rain. We had a few windows that let a little water in, but no big deal at all. And since we still have power the most major thing that happened was part of our side fence fell down in the backyard. So we have a nice walk way to the neighbors now. All in all we are in a lot better condition than many in the Houston area, and are very thankful for that. It is still a little rainy and windy and our biggest problem now it that we are getting kind of bored. We took some pictures last night and will take some more today and will get those up soon.

HURRICANE IKE

Yes we are still in Houston. Yes we are staying here. And yes my mother did fly in on Wednesday, so lucky her, she gets to check out this hurricane thing with us. We are ready. I've been talking to others around us who have more experience with these kind of things than we do, and it sounds like we will be fine.
