Stormaggedon

 We were told to prepare for the storm of the half century!  It was supposed to be immense. It ended up being pretty much a dud though we did lose power for 2 hours. It was actually fun to have the power out for that bit of time. We put the kids to bed and Jeremy and I played cribbage in front of the fire by candle lantern. It was fun but I kind of wished it had lasted just a bit longer.

Crazy Wind Storm

The Northwest got hit with an insane windstorm that left people without power all across our state.  Trees down, roads closed, cold temps it was pretty incredible.  We lost power but were very lucky that we were only without it for a few hours two different times, friends just a couple cul de sacs away had it out for 2.5 days and many people in the Spokane area were without it for much longer.  Fortunately, I was able to get all the candles and flashlights ready before taking Lucy to dance and we had plenty of PBJ for dinner :-)
