Day 292- Frankenstorm

I am catching up since we have been without power.  Tuesday brought the brunt of the storm, with over a foot of snow during the day.  We lost power Monday night and had fun living unplugged for the start of this day. However, after reading that we would be without power for days, Russell took off for a generator and heater to get us through.  By the time he was able to get these things, it was getting dark and the roads were getting bad, so he stayed with his cousin in Fairmont and Jackson, Vivienne, and I camped out.  We had some chili and spaghetti for dinner by candlelight, had warm baths by flashlight, and then watched Polar Express on the portable DVD player until it died.  We had a goodnight and everyone slept pretty well all curled up in our big bed- even Joe slept up by Jackson to keep him warm.

Jackson's new hat 
 fun times in the playroom- thank goodness for sunlight!
Woah buddy- that's some snow- Bernie making a run for it 
 Joe says- it's hard when you're heavy and sink to the bottom
Russell shoveled them a path before he left 
Bernie was wondering how Joe got so tall 

Yummy spaghetti! 
All done! 

Spaghetti for dinner, Jackson brought his own light
