Longest Post Ever

So, since I have been horrible about posting, this may well end up being the longest post you've ever read. On the upside...it will be mostly pictures. The weekend after our power was restored my family came down to Houston to visit (all except my brother Neil, his wife Steph, and obviously Winn), complete with niece and nephew. We had a blast. The following weekend, Neil and Steph went to Dallas so we went up to see them and the rest of my family and spent the day on the lake. Since then we have been busy with work and school. Here are a lot of pictures from our activities.

While everyone was in Houston we went down to a small marina to check out some of the boat damage. There were boats everywhere! If you look closely you can see that they are on the side of the highway, strewn about in the water, and sunk.

Unfortunately the rest of the pictures from when they were down here are either on my Mom's camera or my Sister's. So, you just get to see destruction.

Here are some pictures from the lake. For some reason all that is on my camera are pictures of Scott and Sebastian. I'm not sure where everybody else is.

While at the lake, our neighbor asked if Sebastian wanted to fish off his dock. Since he is an accomplished fisherman, he had that kid catching fish in a matter of minutes. All in all he caught 3 fish. One small blue gill and two huge catfish. Scott came over since he had never caught a fish before to check it out and see what he could do. Well, he only caught a tiny blue gill. Poor guy.


Later on they took to discussing the important things of life.

Hopefully I will get more pictures from my sister and mom soon. Oh yeah, I almost forgot I made a quilt top a little while back (Trish you still have to show me how to back it!). It is a fun whimsical first time quilt that my friend Trish taught me how to do. It was a lot of fun and kept me busy for a couple of days while Scott studied.
