One of Hurricane Ike's first victim's was this historic restaurant, Brennan's of Houston. One of my most favorite restaurants in Houston. I have been here every year for my birthday, special events, Christmas lunches and a few dates! A fire took this fine dining establishment down and even a few people were injured. A friend of mine knew this was one of my spots...so she sent me a text and was like...Hey, Brennan's Burned Down..Just so you know. The mean thing...she was in the room with me..knowing I was in a bit of shock. I still don't know the extent of damage caused by this hurricane. I think those outside of Houston/Galveston area have a better idea than I do. Without power...I am unable to see all its fury. Maybe that is for the better. Things are starting to come back to life {it seems}. I am back at the office today and so much to do. As far as I know..everyone is doing fine...as best we can. My prayers go out to those who may have suffered any and all losses. Just thought I'd post a few pictures...MY week before Ike.

My birthday lunch @ Brennan's of Houston 7/18/2007 with the Ft. Worth Team! Ahh!
Banana Fosters...was good and fun to watch!
Who didn't love their Turtle Soup {I know it sounds strange..but it was MMM MMM good}.

Gigi & I went to the Astro's Game Tuesday night. We always have fun. The kids and I went to the Thursday night game...I will have pictures soon. It was a tribute to 9/11 First Responders. When they sang GOD BLESS AMERICA, you couldn't help but get CHILLS.
