What's goin' on?

Not a lot. Just praying for our friends and family in Humble and in The Woodlands, TX....both are suburbs of Houston and have been affected by Ike. They are without power and without phones for who knows how long?

We've been housing a few of our own evacuees...Steve's sister Amy, her roommate, and her puppy Macy. This is Macy. She is a puggle....half beagle, half pug, and yes, it is a real name.

I am not a big fan of dogs in my house, but Macy is sweet and tiny and not annoying and Braxton has had so much fun with her! Amy volunteered to keep the boys last night so Steve and I could have a real live date without children. Wahoo!!! We had a gift card stashed away to a great Mexican restaurant called Gloria's. Yum! We ate GOOD! While we were gone the kids baked cookies and Amy gave them tattoos. Thank you Aunt Amy!


As Hurricane Ike passed over us today and brought a little rain, this is how the boys acknowledged it's presence.....


A little dancing in the rain never hurt anyone, right? :)

We will continue to pray for our family and friends that have been affected by Ike. We are anxious to hear that everyone is safe and sound and we are washing up the sheets just in case someone needs to camp out here for a while!

You know we have a puggle....our little tippy looks more like a beagle though. He's been a nightmare but we love him. Getting a puppy right before you add another child to the family- NOT A SMART IDEA.
