We had a great time at CP yesterday! Bonnie had a chance to meet our Church family. After Church we came home, unloaded the car, sat down on the couch, turned the TV on and them out went the electric.
At this point the memorial service had not been cancelled, so we decided to go a head and get ready and leave a little early. As we were fighting the wind to get there, we got a call letting us know the service was postponed until today. So we drove back to the house. We lit every candle we owned and played some games with the kiddos. By the time we were done with the games, we were all pretty hungry. We had nothing that didn't have to be cooked to eat but crackers. So we decided to venture up town. Wouldn't you know that as soon as we arrived at the first three restaurants they were closing. We finally went to Gold Star, being the only restaurant open they were out of everything almost. They did have hamburgers and chicken, which is very good by the way.
We came home and Scott got out his guitar. Scott, Bonnie, the kids and I sat around singing. Our neighbors probably think we are crazy with out way out of tune voices. But we had a blast. Then we shared some stories with each other. It ended up being a great family night. And for the first time ever I was glad the electric was not on! Now I am getting a little impatient. It has almost been 24 hours. The weirdest part of it is that half the town has electric.
Hope the rest of you had fun with your electricity experience last night.

I don't have electric! But the office does have electric! That is so unfair...LOL I wish it would come back on real soon.
They are quoting us 3-5 more days! Oh boy what am I going to do!
If anyone needs Anything give us call or come on over no matter what time. We have electric and internet now.
Oh my gosh! Just let us know if you guys need anything. I saw the Duke dudes from the Carolinas have arrived so maybe things will get back up sooner!
