Ike Update

I know many of you are wondering and worrying...so here's a quick update:

Grandpa got out of the hospital midday today, and James went into Houston to pick them up.  They took a very scenic route home and got here in about 4 hours which, for those of you who evacuated during Rita know, ain't all that bad.  Yes, Brenham is going to get some high winds but as it stands now Grandma & Grandpa would have been right in Ike's path had they stayed, so we're all relieved that they're out and don't have to worry about it.  

So far, so good--Grandpa is eating and taking his medicine, and now we're all going to get a good night's sleep so we can play tomorrow...James will get off at noon and Kayci's school is closed, so we're looking forward to a relaxing day at home.  :)  

Of course we wish everyone well, but we're still hoping Ike will push out a bit more and Brenham won't get so much of the wind.  We'll keep you posted, but for now, we're all safe and ready for whatever comes.
