With the threat of Hurricane Harvey approaching, any weekend plans we had were scratched. Blake stocked up on some bottled water and canned goods on his way home from a work trip in Denton since the people in New Braunfels were preparing for the Apocalypse and stores were quickly running out of all the necessities. Since we knew we would be stuck inside all weekend, we headed outside Friday evening to play. Greyson was not a fan of the the darkening clouds and winds picking up. Fortunately, we were very blessed in not having any damage as the hurricane made it's way up through Texas. We had about 10 inches of strong, constant rain and high winds. We anticipated losing power, and although we had quite a few strings of flickers, it never did go out. There were so many people affected by the storm and abundant rain along the coast in Houston, it's hard to believe our family in the Dallas area and west of San Antonio were enjoying bright, sunny days. We are grateful we made it through without any damage and continue to pray for those that have lost so much.
Our adventurous Addison fell off a chair and ended up with this shiner and soon to be first black eye. |
