Still no electricity

Lauren as "Evil Diva Kitty", Sick Justin

We are on day 11 without electricity. I sure am glad I didn't live pre-electricity. It is unfortunate for us that we are in an area that is taking a while to have electricity restored, but other than the kids really missing home and being bored without all my projects to keep me busy, I can't complain. I know that the folks working to get everything restored are working hard long hours and my prayers are with them. I think we are going to head back home and rough it for a few days with the hope that power will be on soon. Lauren goes back to school on Thursday and also back to gymnastics, so we are excited about that. Since we have been staying with Jason's mom (Mimi to the kids), she has experienced Lauren's vivid imagination. Mimi got her Halloween decorations out of the attic the other day and ever since then, Lauren has been obsessed with having a Halloween party. She has dressed up and made Halloween crafts. We even made some Halloween cupcakes. I am sure for her it will feel like Halloween will never get here.
