Slumber Party '09

This is what my parents' house looks like right now:


And they don't have any power, so Mom, Dad, and Granny Candy are staying with us. Frank and George are loving this big slumber party. I'm having fun too, except that I nearly froze last night. I need a bear skin or something between me and the air mattress. I'm not sure how Pete liked sleeping on the top bunk of the boys' bunk beds - but since he's still there, I assume he's pretty comfortable.


We're only 4 miles from my parents, but we didn't get hit nearly as hard as them. The boys had a lot of fun playing in the snow and eating icicles. I told them their snowsuits would keep them dry, and I think they took it as a personal challenge to test my theory:




We have a huge holly bush that looks really pretty in the ice.
