They said that Ike was really big - about as big as the state of Texas itself and over 900 miles in diameter. 
This is I-45 heading into Galveston.
This is downtown Houston - the 4th largest city in America.

We're still waiting to get home. There is still no power or water. Once everything comes back on, we'll need to figure out how to bring food back down with us, as the stores don't really have groceries. There is also limited gas, so that is a concern.
We are very blessed in that we are staying with my in-laws...and we have been safe and sound in their welcoming home. The kids are antsy, and ready to return to their home, but they are enjoying their time with Grandma and Grandpa...there are many who aren't as fortunate.
We'll keep you posted...maybe my next post will indicate that we're on our way home!

Oh Michelle I just can't believe all of this. I'm so thankful that you all are safe and sound and that the damage to your home doesn't seem too extensive at this point. Do keep us posted. We are all praying for you! Love you.
