They are here!!!


Today my parents aka Nana and Papaw drove up to Nashville to escape Gustav!  They had a mandatory evacuation so thankfully they got out in time.  They lived through Rita three years ago which completely ripped up our home town.  It didn't get the publicity that Katrina did, but the destruction was extensive!  It is scary to think that it may happen again, but we are hopeful that it won't.  If you think about it, please say a prayer for my family.  My sister and her family stayed in Baton Rouge, and my Aunt, Uncle and cousins all stayed in Lake Charles (my cousin Laurie is due with her third child any minute now!).  We are worried about them, but feel confidant that they will be well taken care of.  

Anyway, now that we have the depressing part out of the way...whooo hooo, NANA AND PAPAW ARE HERE!!!  The kids are so excited, and it couldn't happen at a better time for me.  Jase will be out of town most of the week so it will be nice to have the company!  Jake and Jonah have been playing non-stop with them since they walked through the door.  They are now ending the evening with jammies on and watching the movie Cars.  Can it get any better?  Aren't grandparents the best!  

**notice the lovely pictures in the background that Jason drew with Jake.  Isn't it wonderful to have a huge art easel in your living room! lol! Now that I have seen it in a picture, it is definitely going up in the bonus room tomorrow!
