Lou's First Wedding

We went to a wedding this weekend for one of Ed's work buddies. It was the first time Lou has been to a wedding and she loved it! She wanted to be the flower girl. She loved the bride's gown and afterwards, she was sure to tell the bride she "looked beautiful".

Lou found a friend, Olivia. They danced all night long together.

Tropical Storm Hanna

It appears we have survived Tropical Storm Hanna with little damage. It rained all through the night. The weather reports are saying we have received at least 6 inches of rain. The wind gusts were not nearly as bad as we thought they were going to be. We are thankful it was as mild as it was. We took some pics of the backyard. You'll notice in many of the pictures that the water level has risen alot. All in all, it could have been much worse so we are thankful.

We used to have a deck and a few stairs. As you can see from the picture, the water level is so high that it is even with our yard.

A New Do!

After several years of the same length of hair, I took the plunge and chopped it all off. I was very nervous that Ed wouldn't like it. I chose to surprise him with it and in the end, it worked out well. He loves it! He says it's his favorite haircut. So in the end, it was a success!

The Backyard Playground

Ed has worked so hard to get this playground put up in the backyard. It has finally come together and since completion, it has become the neighborhood playground. He was even sure to put the finishing touch on the playground - a Texas star! It's a great addition to our lake view and the kiddos love it!
