I Like Ike



Since yesterday we've been getting ready for Ike. We have not been asked to evacuate so we decided to stay and "shelter in place". We have our 72 hour kit, as well as water, food and whatever else we can think of. Here is a picture of Matt putting things into our garage that were in our yard. 

Our good friend Gwen Anderson is spending the night with us so we are having a bona fide hurricane party. We made yummy bean dip and chicken broccoli. Random!

Here's Matt and the kids enjoying the bean dip. Yes, I wrote kids, plural. Lily LOVES to eat any and everything. 

This was taken a couple of days ago but it showcases Lily's first little teefer. She's almost 11 months old. A little slow on the teefers there but I think I remember my mom saying I got mine in a little late too.


This is a little video documentary of current conditions in our neighborhood. Check back as we will post developments as we are able to. So far we are safe and well fed.

Glad to hear you guys are okay. We will be checking for updates to make sure you guys are okay. We love you a ton. The kids are adorable. That little Lily of yours is just too cute for her own good. Late teeth runs in our family. Cameron didnt get his till after 11 months. The problem with late teethers is they are late to loose teeth. That makes things difficult when they are older.

Good luck!!!!!

I am assuming all is well. From what I've seen on the news Galveston is a complete mess -- where did Jennifer end up going? Downtown Houston looks a little messed up.

More photos of the kids please. Not that I don't love Matt and Erin you guys don't change as much as Lily and Ian. They are both so adorable.

Love much, Shelley
