Staying Put

I know there are a few of you out there wondering how we are and what we are doing in the wake of good old Ike. I just wanted to post quickly and let everyone know that we live pretty far from the coast, and are not under an evacuation order either mandatory or voluntary. We are simply hunkering down and holding on for the next few days. We are well prepared, well looked after by good friends and neighbors, and well stocked --so please don't worry about us :) And since I can never do a post without pictures, I thought I post some back to school photos of Ty. He started First grade a few weeks ago and is loving every minute of it. He seems to have an excellent teacher and we are excited to see him having such a great time in school. This first one is from last year as he started Kindergarten. He looks so young and small to me. And here he is now, growing up way too fast: So anyways, I hope you all have a great weekend--I'm not sure ours will be great, but I'm sure it will be exciting :)
