Rian's first power outage!

A couple of nights ago we had a really bad storm and the power shut off!! Let me remind you that it's 100 degree's and probably 90% humidity!!! LOL!!!!

First, when the storm started we were at my dad's house for dinner. Mark noticed on the news that it was going to get worse so we decided to head home which is only 7 minutes away. As I am running to the car, I should have followed those important rules parents tell you when your little..... don't run you might slip! Well, of course I slipped and fell on my knees and somehow stubbed my toes with blood all over. Did I mention I was holding Princess?? Poor dog ran like hell to the car! LOL!!

When we pulled into the driveway the power shut off with our garage door still open. Mark's mother was in town with us and the last time she was here hurricane Ike followed! We are thinking she brings us the bad weather! LOL!!

I'm thinking it is starting to get dark so lets give Rian a bath while we can still see and its not so hot and muggy inside! Ms. Rian had a relaxing bath with candles, wish that were me in the bath! She loved it! We continue with her normal bedtime routine.

We put her to bed and it was sooo hot she could not sleep at all. I was blowing on her and she stopped crying but I realized that I couldn't do this all night! Mark says to me, " You want to sit in the car with the air on and her CD playing?" I thought, sounds good to me! Rian fell asleep in my arms within 5 minutes and then an hour and a half goes by and we are still in the car. I didn't have the heart to bring her inside the muggy house. The power finally came back on. YEAH! Ms. Rian had a great first storm!!
