Destin Trip & Hurricane Gustav

We're back! We had a great time on our short trip to Destin with Justin & Britni and Austin & Melissa. Unfortunately our trip was cut even shorter because inept meteorologists scared us into thinking Gustav was going to be worse than Katrina, so we left a day early to ensure we could rescue Frank from the kennel. You can see the WILD video of our poor Bradford Pear tree, taken during the height of the storm towards the bottom of this post. First of all, though, here are some pics from our vacation....

Saturday night we went to Baytown Wharf to eat and watch some football. We ate at Poppy's (home of the $6 bottle of water) and then went to a sports bar to watch the game.

Here's that crazy video of our little tree...I'm REALLY surprised she made it through such a treacherous storm (sarcasm!)

Even though the storm was wild, Frank was still terrified...he's such a wiener!

I was talking to Britni tonight and she wants me to sign up for a yoga class at our church. I'm really excited, I've never done yoga before, so I'm a little scared, but I think it will be really fun. Of course I can barely bend over to put my pants on or tie my shoes right now...so watching me will be very humorous for everyone in the class till the little one arrives. But I'm hoping it will be a nice addition to my post-pregnancy workout routine....part of my get my body back as soon as possible plan!
