My husband (a baptist minister) was asked to perform a wedding for some friends of ours.............on the beach in Destin, Florida!!!!!! 

Guess who got to go too!!! It was so beautiful! 

(Congratulations Brent and Cheramie!)

While there we watched the weather channel trying to figure out if Katrina would affect us in Destin.  When we went to bed Friday night she was headed to Florida.  When we turned the radio on Saturday morning she was headed toward Louisiana.  Guess which direction we were headed?!?!?  Mississippi!!!  Yesterday and today we've made preparations for Katrina as we are expecting some hurricane force wind gusts here in central Mississippi.  Last night the very first cloud bands of Katrina made their way to our area.  This is what they looked like:

I'll have my camera ready to take some after shots.

Take care everyone!
