Just when life gets "somewhat" back to normal then comes Ike. With Gustav fresh on every one's mind, especially mom, it has really been overwhelming.
With many of our family members in the direct path, we are so grateful that none suffered great losses. We pray for all those who lost everything including their lives. For many it was a very vivid reminder of hurricane Rita.
Eric and I want to thank all who opened their homes as a place to go if needed. We decided to rough it out in Crowley at our friends' house. Thank you Rikki and Stacie for opening your home to us. It was a great time to catch up and enjoy each other's company.
