We STILL have no power. I came up to Randy's office tonight to check my email and thought I would let you know. We are very ready to go home. Today marks the end of 2 weeks that we have been out of our house. We're very thankful for our wonderful friends, and the air conditioning they have, but we really want to sleep in our own beds and not live out of suitcases. Maybe we'll get power tomorrow (I keep saying that).
In other news, Kendall is waving now! And crawling EVERYWHERE. We are staying with our friends Jerry and Kathy Peters and last night Jerry was waving at Kendall and she waved back! Then she waved bye bye to Dad when he left for work this morning and has been waving all day. Except when we ran by Jan's house and of course she wouldn't show off. But it's really cute - she waves her whole arm up and down. Also, she is all over the place. I can't just put her down and expect her to stay in the same place. And she's fast! It's fun to watch her crawl to things she wants to put in her mouth.
Randy has been very busy with Ike relief. He is coordinating our church volunteers with needs in the area and there are a lot of both! It's been very hard to see the situations lots of people are in due to the storm, but it has been wonderful to see how much people want to help them.
I have never in my life seen mosquitos like we have right now. They are AWFUL. You can hardly get in your car without them swarming you. I haven't been able to take Kendall and Molly on a walk in over 2 weeks. We are all missing that! This morning I counted Kendall's mosquito bites and she had 27! Yikes!
Sorry no pictures. We have taken some, but they are on our camera and we can only get them off on our computer, which currently has no power. Maybe we'll have power tomorrow....

Good to get an update. We've missed our Kendall news! So thankful you guys have a cool, safe place to stay...I can sympathize with you on living out of a suitcase but it's amazing how much we can do without if we have to! We love you guys and continue to pray for you!
Thank you for getting us up to date!! And for the precious details of Kendall's growing. I keep you all at the front of my prayers, several times a day. I admire the way you and Randy have handled this time in your life and am so proud of your strength and dependance on your Father. This Granny loves this family!!!! xoxoxo
Hey guys! Boo to no power. Is there an end in sight?
Sweet Kendall waving! That's great! It's so funny when they start doing it. Wait until she gets excited to see someone (probably dad) coming in the door! It looked like Henry's arm was going to fall off he was waving so hard!
Hey if there's still no power November 15-18 go back to Ft. Worth and visit!! We'll be there!! :)
