Earthquake, Pirates, Traffic

A few of you wrote about the earthquake that hit here the Saturday before we arrived. We were unaware of it until you guys wrote us. Our biggest danger has been traveling by car. I just thought I took my life into my own hands when trying to cross airline at Swamp Road! Of course, the armed guards on the boat today were there to protect us from pirates. Thankfully, all was quiet on the waters and we safely docked at the island. Upon first impressions of our arrival, I told Tanner I felt like we were on "Lost".

Blessings,
Steph

Guess What?
The traffic lights at Airline and Swamp Road are working BUT there isn't a turn light to turn left coming from Gonzales. DUH.

Daddy and I went fishing today after we got the kids on the bus. We put in at Bayou Carne. The water was muddy but we found canals with pretty water but only each caught four and they were a little too short. Stacie got the kids off the bus and brought them to her house to play and do their homework. She insisted that they stay there until Walter and Margaret pick them up for dinner. We came home early but she insisted. They have been absolutely no trouble. The only one I am having trouble with right this minute is Odie. I think he is mad because Maddie isn't home so he is running all around the house chewing anything he can reach. I guess I need to get my "spoon".

Darra said that his mom called and said that it was snowing in Dallas.

Hunter is sick again and didn't go to school today. Stephen is preparing for a tournament this weekend and the morning temp is supposed to be around 20!

Brent said a bunch was going to BR tonight to see Alan Jackson. I don't know if he got that right or not.

We miss you and love you and can't wait until Saturday.

See you soon Ricky!!
