we made it

It took us 7 about hours (we stopped once for about 30 minutes), and it usually takes less than 5.  I guess that’s not too bad…we didn’t live in Houston when everyone evacuated for Rita, but I heard horror stories about people being stuck on the road for 20+ hours.  Thank goodness that was not the case today!  Now we just watch and wait and pray.  It looks like a big one, and if it stays on the path it’s on, our area will get hit pretty hard.

The kids did good on the ride up.  Camryn had a few times of major protest, but Connor and Logan did great.  It’s times like today when I am so thankful for the car dvd player!  Dallas and Austin even behaved in the car.  Austin (the dog) must be getting used to these trips, beause he just settled right down and slept.  Dallas (the cat) had to meow a bit, but it wasn’t too bad, thank goodness!

I do have some video footage of our trip up, but I’m going to wait and post it tomorrow.  It’s been a long day and I’m headed to bed.

  2. I’m glad you made it in safely, and in a timely manner. Oh…I sounded so teachery just then…I also love you calling Camryn’s cry times “times of protest.” I’ll have to remember that one!
