Just wanted to send a quick note to let you know that we are doing well after Hurricane Ike. We live ~50 miles from the shore, but the eye still passed over our house as a strong Category 2 hurricane. Our house, amazingly, suffered no damage except for loss of power and a few branches from trees that I wanted trimmed anyway. Our neighborhood had some significant downed trees and roads blocked by 40-50 ft trees. We still didn't have power until Monday evening and Steve's office in downtown Houston is closed through the week. So for my birthday we celebrated without electricity by having foil dinners and smores for dessert, yum : ) On Monday we decided to make a quick trip to Austin with some friends while Steve had unexpected Vacation time. It was a lot of fun and good to get away from all the chaos for a bit. Houston still has a lot of clean up left and long lines at grocery stores and gas stations. But all and all things are on the mend. We appreciate all your messages and are sorry it took us a bit to get back to you.

I just found your blog through Natalie's! Glad you guys were okay through the storm. It was pretty crazy to see the damage it caused. Your little guy is so cute! I love the vampire look on him :)
