Well, with Hurricane Gustav heading our way we decided to get out of its way. We first headed to New Orleans, thinking that would be far enough. However, he decided to turn enough east that we decided it was in our best interest to go even further away. So, we took Granny and headed to Aunt Carla's house for a few days. Our kids were not fazed, because we go there often enough that I think they just thought we were on vacation. And we were, sort of. We had a nine hour drive to get there (normally four) and we weren't able to do much the first day, because we got enough of the Gustav weather to keep us home. But the next day was a nice day, so we were able to take Regan to this mall that has a fountain for kids to play in. All in all it was a pretty nice vacation. And we were most appreciative that Aunt Carla was willing to house us for an unknown amount of time (and seemed pretty happy about it. : ) Thanks Aunt Carla!! We had no traffic on the way home, so that was really nice. When we got home, Phil and his family were on their way back from Houston. They still didn't have power, so they spent the night with us. Regan was extra excited! A vacation and she got to come home to her cousins. I don't think life gets much better than that for her.
