POWER OUTAGE AND LOTS OF SNOW


It snowed, and snowed, and snowed some more yesterday. On top of that the power went out. And then it came back on. And then it went out. And then it came back on. And then it went out again. Seriously, it made for one very unhappy Momma.

Luckily my unhappiness did not rub off on the kids. In fact, they felt just the opposite - they thought the lack of power was kind of fun and ran around the house playing games with flashlights and my battery operated candles to busy themselves. Once they bored of that, they suited up in their winter gear and ran outside to play. They pretty much spent the entire day outside, playing with the neighbors, building forts, making snow angels, having snowball fights, eating snow, and making snowmen.






They played and played until their cold rosy red cheeks, runny noses and the pure exhaustion of it all got the best of them.

As far as the kids are concerned, it was pretty much the best day ever.
