Hurrican Ike

Ah, hurrican Ike!! Well we stayed in a hotel room in Katy where the back window & back windshield were busted out of Adam's car :( I guess that was not totally out of harm's way. Our house flooded. However, our neighborhood has never ever flooded in 30 years, so all of our neighbors were shocked. All of the small cities around us are boating communities (Kemah, Seabrook, Clear Lake) so the most shocking thing about the storm was all the boats everywhere. There were boats in people's yards, in businesses, and on the highways. It was the strangest thing! We had anywhere from 3 in. to a foot of water in the house. So, we got power 13 days later & are now living in a house with no floors or walls! haha They cut 4 foot of sheetrock out throughout the house & we ripped out all flooring. We had the giant fans & dehumidifiers for about 4 days. It's a pain. However, we are very well insured (ahem, thank you, Adam), so I think we'll come out of this better off! I get new stuff-woohoo! ;)
