We played Candyland. We snuggled, the kids played in the hallway with toys. Then at around 6 we decided to go to town for a warm dinner out.
All of us loaded into the Jeep and it had been warming up too. Dusty put it in reverse and guess what!? The tires were frozen to the ground!
Audrey being as emotional as she is freaked out. I told her to take it easy and daddy would fix whatever it was that was keeping us from moving.Guess he's had experience with vehicles being frozen to the ground! We got going eventually and had a nice filling and warm dinner at the local mexican resturant.
When we got home, the power was still out! So we all cuddled into our big bed and daddy read the first two chapers of Audrey's new book: How to Train Your Dragon.
Then we turned the portable lights out and snuggled down all 4 of us in bed to sleep. Brogan was out first. Audrey wiggled and wiggled and whispered and wiggled and finally SHE HAD to go to her own room to sleep because she couldn't sleep with all of the noise of everyone breathing! Wasn't too long ago when she couldn't go to sleep without the sound of everyone breathing.
Daddy helped Audrey get to her room with Brittney as a bedmate, THEN mom and dad were able to go to sleep.
We woke up around 1:00 am and the power was back on. After turning off the tv in the living room and lights - checking on Audrey and turning on her nightlight, I crawled back into bed and said happy new year to my husband before falling asleep again.
Happy New Year... the power's on and it's warm in here today!
