Old McDonald Farm

My sister-in-law from California came down for a visit 2 days after we got power back on from Hurricane Ike. We had a great visit with Cindy. We took the kids along with Chase who was staying with us for the weekend to Old McDonald Farm. There is a petting zoo, Train that goes around the park, they also had play areas and a sand box. The kids had a blast feeding the deer, and riding the horses.

Down power line

Pictures from Hurricane IKE

Hurricane Ike was a huge storm, a lot of people suffered some kind of damage. Some more than others. We were without power for 2 weeks. There was a power line down in our neighborhood. Ronnie brought a generator to us the last 4 days of no power. I was cool with having no power, we BBq'd outside we had food, water and ice, the thing that stunk was not being able to do laundry. Ronnie got his power on before we did so I went to his house and did about 10 loads of laundry. I am so happy we have power back.

Movies

It has been so crazy busy since the Hurricane that I have not kept up with the blogging. Well today is a gorgeous fall day (yaaa cool weather) I took Kaitlyn and Ryan along with two neighbor girls (Alyssa and Lauren) to see Beverly Hills Chihuaha, what a cute movie. All four of the kids sat on the edge of their seats the whole time. The kids and I had a great time.
Ron was at one of our rentals doing some yard work. We also bought a couch for our family room, now I finally can get that room in order.
Good times good times

More blogging to come of our Feast trip and visit from my sister-in-law and of course hurricane Ike.
