Our power was out for a little over an hour tonight. Luckily, dinner was out of the oven, so we ate a nice, warm meal by more candle light than on Valentine's Day. We are thankful Kyle had to go on the Klondike camp-out because he put new batteries in our dead head-lamps before camping. Hence, we were prepared for the power outage.
Having the power go out occasionally is a wonderful thing, I've decided. It gives you an extra kick-in-the-rear to improve your emergency essentials; I need to work on our water supply. It also gives you an opportunity to focus on doing stuff as a family, rather than watching TV or playing on the computer. We had so much fun practicing Jason's nursery songs over and over, including "Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes," "Once There was a Snowman," "Ring Around the Rosies," "London Bridge," "Sunbeam," etc. Jason was in heaven playing with his parents, singing all those fun songs, and practicing his candle-blowing skills yet again. Good times.
