Westlake v. St. Louis

Time for Thursday Night Football again. This week the Westlake Ram's took on the St. Louis Saints. The JV team is 2-0 for the season following tonight's 14-2 win. Alex got a lot more playing time this week and did a fantastic job. Check out the videos he made some really good plays (he is number 34). Way to go Rams!

Leann opted not to play soccer this year, which turned out to be a good thing because she would have missed a lot of time after her surgery. She is all healed up and doing well. She was my video helper at the games this week, she worked the camera at Elise's game so my arm could rest. I will make sure to get some pics of her up this week.

Soccer

On the same night as Alex's first football game, Elise had her first soccer game. Leann and I were able to catch the 1st half of her game before heading to Alex's game. Because of all the Hurricane activity we don't have uniforms yet, but they had fun anyway.

Are you ready for some football?

We sure were. With all of the craziness of the last few weeks with Hurricanes the 1st two of Alex's football games were cancelled. Finally on Thursday night we were able to watch as the Westlake Rams took on Sam Houston High Broncos. Alex was able to get in some playing time and we all enjoyed watching him. Alex is playing linebacker (he's number 34 in the photo).

All is well

Just a quick update. Everything is fine at our house. We had some strong winds last night but nothing too bad. We lost power for a while but everything is up and running now. The kids handled their waking hours without power very well. Looks like the only damage for us is some tree debris in the yard and we may have lost a small tree in the back yard. All in all we are fine.

Video Footage - Hurricane Ike

Ok here is my attempt to upload the video. I recorded this for Dad so he could see what conditions are like so the commentary is directed to him. It is too dark now to get further video, but I will get more in the morning, although everything should be about over by then.

Hurrican Ike

Just a quick update. All is well here. We have had some wind today but nothing major. We had a little rain around 4 pm but it was not very heavy. I am trying to upload a video of what it looks like outside and will post it soon.
