Well...Like everyone else seemed to do, we decided to leave and go to Huntsville. We really didn't have much of a choice, Dickinson was under mandatory evacuation. We got the house as ready as we could Wednesday night and watched the news. Thursday morning we packed up and headed to Huntsville. It took us about 2 hours to get there thanks to the construction in Conroe...lol! We had to go get supplies and stuff in town, then hunkered down for the storm. We lost power there about 7am Saturday morning. Luckily, we had two generators, the one we bought and PawPaw's. We were able to run the small window unit and the fridges and the tv/satellite. However, we seemed to watch a whole lot of Blue's Clues and Pinky Dinky Doo and Yo Gabba Gabba...she's already controlling the remote. After the weather started to cool off, we went outside for a while. Alyssa loves being outside. She wanted to play in the grass and eat the leaves. She's putting everything in her mouth now. She also loved trying to reach for the dogs, they started avoiding her reach after a few days.
We got power back at our house and decided to return home and survey the damage the Wednesday after the storm. We only had a few panels blown down and some wind blown shrubs We were very lucky, and I praise God it wasn't worse. My prayers go out to all those who suffered far worse than us.
What's this stuff??
