We survived Hurricane Ike mostly unscathed. Don't get me wrong, the house needs some repairs, but we are lucky compared to most people. We got power back in record time and we now even have cable and internet. We spent three hours evacuating to Conroe for the storm. Thankfully it was a much shorter drive home since we came back home quickly (we thought we had power - and were lucky to be right - and Mom and Dad did not). Here are some photos from our hurricane adventure. I don't have any pictures from our house because pictures of water stains on ceilings, ripped awnings and wet attic paraphernalia are just not that interesting.
Hurricane Breakfast - this is what results when the outside freezer loses power and comes slightly open. Savannah thought this was fabulous.
Daddy reading to an apparantly engrossed Annabeth. She loved all the extra Daddy time the hurricane gave her.
Heather's parents' house. Usually we park our car right where this tree landed. Thankfully we had found spare garages for all the cars so none were damaged.
This is their road after lots of clearing. It looked like it rained trees.
