Hurricane Ike

The winds from Hurricane Ike started picking up in our area around 12 PM and continued until about 8 or 9 PM, taking our power out with it. The pictures you see look like we have the lights on but don't be fooled. NO LIGHTS/NO AC. We like to keep our house like an ice box and thankfully Miller has adjusted. We just keep her well bundled. Unfortunatly, because we had no AC, we had to strip her down to her diaper. I guess she is pretty modest, because she didn't like that idea or the idea of it being a little toasty. About 2 AM she had all she could take and decided to wake everyone in the house up(Shane, Courtney, DeDe, Zippo, Coco, & Bentley) That is when Courtney and I held an emergency family meeting and decided that a cool car ride would be the best idea. We cruised down Hwy 80, then back around the loop taking about an hour and that was all it took. Miller was happy for the rest of the night. When I say happy, I mean asleep!!
