"Mr. Tree...he was moving and he didn't leave a forwarding address"
What a wind storm! Our power was out Thursday night around 8:00 and came back on Saturday night at 6:30. Amazing how cold it gets when you don't have the heater on! We bundled up the kiddies and stuck it through with fondu pots, candles, and eventually we got our gas fireplace working. Thanks mom and Brad! and Thanks Kir for being so determined to get it to go!
We had several offers to have us stay at other houses and for that we all say thank you! We decided to stick it out because we just knew that the power had to come on sometime! If it would have been more than two nights we would have probably gone somewhere.Kirsten's folks are still without power today! Everyone around their neighborhood has power. It's crazy! We've opened our doors to them since Saturday. It's like an impromptu sleep over! Maverick and Lainey are enjoying the extra Grammy and Pappy time, but I'm sure they would rather sleep in their own beds. Hopefully the folks with PSE will get their power up and running soon! I've heard so many reports with different time lines, it's rather crazy to try and figure it out. The worst of it is, there is a tree down on a powerline at a near by elementary school. It's still down today. Our guess this is a reason for their outage. You would think they would want to get the school up and running.
Besides a window that was smashed (and already replaced) we weathered the storm well. It was pretty crazy!
