Disaster

I am sorry my blog has become more about current events, than the life and times of me. But this event has disrupted the lives of many people that my mommy and daddy know and love. You all know that hurricane Ike came through with power and destruction to many places along the TX coast. But the place that was devastated that is closest to our hearts is Shoreacres, TX. Mommy and Daddy lived there four years. It is also home to Houston Yacht Club, which apparently is also a very special place to them. This city has seen devastation that we have not yet seen on the news, because it still has limited access. It was very hard for Mommy and Daddy to see pictures of the aftermath, because it has not been that long since they were residents. They saw beautiful houses on the water front that had been completely destroyed, boats littered all on the YC lawn, huge trees laying on top of homes, and water surrounding nearly every home in the city. Mommy and Daddy ask that you please keep these families in your prayers as they return home and realize they have lost all of their possessions. You can see the devastation for yourself HERE.

I promise to be back this week to blog about all of the fun I've been having. It just didn't seem fitting right now, when so many people have lost so much.

Love,
AC
