So, we had a windstorm a few nights ago, on Tuesday, just a few days after the power outage we had over the weekend. We lost power right after we finished popping a big batch of popcorn and boiling a bunch of water for cocoa. It was perfect timing.

| Running in the Wind |

| Playing in the flooded pasture (dodging branches) |

| Wouldn't wear a coat. Or shoes. |

| Too gusty for kites |
The kids thought it would be fun to go out and play in the wind and it was. Heidi got cold quickly, so I took her in (kicking and screaming) to sit by the fire. It wasn't like we could put her in a warm bath with no power!

We couldn't decide which picture was cuter, this one:
Or this one:
Lucky for us, our power came back on just in time to heat up some leftovers for dinner. I was very thankful. Squishing ten power-hungry people into one living room is not as fun as it used to be. I can distract with reading out loud for only so long...
