Well, we saw nothing from Hurricane Ike. No wind or rain....only evacuees. It was hard to hear their stories. Some were lucky and were coming from farther down the coast around Corpus Christi, but many were from around Galveston and Houston and they don't have much to go back to.

On a lighter note, Lincoln has a new favorite past time....riding on the four wheeler! He only really sits on it while it is standing still since we can't find a helmet to fit him, but every once and a while Grandpa Terry takes him on a slow little ride around the park.

Lincoln also went to the nursery for the first time today at church. He loved it, so they said. He got to play with a lot of little kids and go on a ride in the Bye-Bye Buggy, which is a covered stroller thing that holds like 6 kids. What fun!

This evening we went to the El Marcado downtown and listened to some Mexican music and enjoyed some margaritas....well I enjoyed a virgin Bloody Mary......yum:) Lincoln is quite the little dancer, so I am sure we will go back again soon. He has also learned how to turn on the stereo in the living room so he can jive to that to.

Justin spent the night last night fixing up a bike for me. It is a older three speed bike named the "Free Spirit". He made some adjustments to his bike and then hooked on the bike trailer so we can go for a ride and pull Lincoln behind.....as soon as we find that helmet. Anyone know where they sell helmets for 1 yr olds?

Hope all is well and we miss you!
