Let the birthday celebrations begin
Dylan's birthday celebrations began tonight at Nana and G-daddy's house. We had a Mexican feast! Dylan got 4 new Pokemon toys, which he went crazy over! Just 4 more days and our baby boy will be 7!

Valentine's for our Angel Cedie
We bought Cedie some flowers for February last Sunday. Dylan and I agreed on roses but couldn't decided on red, pink, or white. So, we bought some of each! Dylan also picked out a pink heart decoration that says "I Love You" for her Valentine's Day present. There are more pictures on her blog.
Tornados!
Super Tuesday took on a whole new meaning for Memphis this week. We had a reported 9 tornados pass through our city over an 8 hour period. The National Weather Service called the super cell that hit Tuesday, a significant and rare event. Although our part of town was mostly unhurt (a miracle considering the sky/clouds/rain we saw from our door) other parts were not so lucky. They are still determining the death toll but last I heard it was 9. A mall was hit hard, taking the majority of Sears out. Pieces of Sears were found in Bartlett (where we are - approx. 30 min away) and in Arlington (approx. 45 min. away). Many lost their homes and thousands lost electricity. The TN governor and Pres. Bush will have both come to survey the devastation.
Luckily, our guardian angel Cedie watched over us and kept all of our family and friends safe. Chris' nephew is a student at Union University which was almost completely destroyed but he remained unharmed as well.
