This has been a cold week. Monday night we lost our power in an ice storm. We were able to stay warm enough at the house until about noon on Tuesday. The kids and I headed over to my parents who also don't have power but a fireplace. So their house even without power was very inviting. We played games and the kids played a lot of hide and seek in the black basement with flashlights. Finally on Wednesday night we had our power back on, just in time for Greg to put a few hours of work in the basement. Water had come through the walls and caused a nice mess for us. Without power we just had to leave it, so it is nice to have the majority of it cleaned up now. My parents still do not have power and no estimate when they will get it other than an automated recording from the power company saying expect it around the 22nd.
Last night it started snowing and today the kids are loving it. They have been outside going on two hours now. I love watching them play but only from a window. It is just too cold for me:) Meryn must have gotten her daddy's warm blood because she is going strong out there.
