November has been a Stormy Month. Last week we lost power for 12 hours: 9-9. Always a good test run to find out if we have a working generator, enough batteries and working flashlights, candles, matches, blankets and such. Honestly I was surprised the kids slept all night without their running heater, humidifier and/or fan. It did get a little cold, but everyone did great. We did find out that our generator wasn't working, but John has since gotten that taken care of.
We knew another storm was coming in with chances of snow...and we were not disappointed. Sunday there were a few snow flurries and the kids were out on the deck playing in it, in their pajamas/snowsuits before church on the off chance it might melt before we got home.
Monday morning it was cold, windy and still a little snowy, but with only a 2 hour late-start and no reports of school closure we put McKenna on the bus and sent her in..while T&T and I played...for 4 hours.
I received a phone call that school would be letting out an hour early to avoid further ice on the roads.
After picking McKenna up we headed to Winco and stocked up on a few things and then we bunkered down for the big storm. John even came home early from work that night. Everyone was a little nervous...and we were not Disappointed.
Boy did the snow come, and come and come.
We never lost power, we loved our Propane fireplace, hot chocolate, movies, and playing with our Daddy over the next couple of days. Outside and In!
