Hurricane Ike

Hurricane Ike was an experience I don't think I want to have again. The 80-90 mph wind gusts in my neighborhood sustained for about 8 hours caused a lot of damage. Luckily we recently moved to a new section so all the fences are new and all the trees are small. In older sectioins of Fairfield with larger trees there was a lot of damage...downed fences, blown off shingles and siding, downed trees, etc. The work projects have been many and will be for months to come. The video below is just a small sample of the winds at our house. It was taken near the end of the storm but the wind speed was still very high. Janna and I appreciate your prayers and calls during and after the storm.

YEAH! We're in our new home!

We have FINALLY moved into our new home!!!!!! It was really touch and go for a while. There had not been any showings at the old home for a couple of weeks and we were thinking we would have to go back to the drawing board and go with plan B .
We received a call on Valentine's Day saying we had an offer on the house. Todd was on his way to Daytona, I was out in Austin spending time with Tanna, John and Danielle. Everything came together just in time, guess the stars were aligned just right. We moved to our new home on March 25th. We closed on the old home and the new home the same day. Spent the next 2 days moving and cleaning.
We love our home, it is beautiful.

Sorry we don't have any current pictures or video yet...... still arranging rooms, hanging pictures, placing furniture etc

Hi, we decided it was time to post a video or two of our new home. The inside is video is a bit large so hopefully it doesn't cause anyone problems. The home should be finished in about 4-6 weeks.
