Just an update. Ike has passed and everything here in the DFW area was just fine. We experienced a bit of rain but nothing compared to what they were saying it could have been. Yesterday we stayed in for the most part (ran a few errands in the morning) and just prepared ourselves. Now that we are STIR CRAZY we are going to visit several friends that we haven't seen in awhile today! GOTTA GET OUT OF THE HOUSE!!!!!!
