It's been awhile since I've posted but I have a good excuse! Power outage, husband in Canada, birthdays galore, Thanksgiving, Anniversary, burnt lips/nose, etc...
November has always been busy here but this one was with some extra craziness. Jarom left for Toronto for a week for business, during which time we had a power outage, not long, but still I was sitting alone in the dark...not cool. Then a winter storm passed through and we got a couple inches of snow, but what really devastated the area were the winds which knocked down tons of trees in Gig Harbor. Undoubtedly we had a power outage again, although this time it last for 3 days!!! So every night I kept thinking to myself this will all be over with they have to get our power on tonight. Next morning it was Ella's birthday and it was 57 degrees in the house! Poor Ella had layers of clothes on while opening her presents, we were all so cold by that evening that we didn't even have a cupcake or candles for her. She also ended up burning her nose and top lip on our gas fireplace glass. She didn't cry but said "Ow, mommy, ow!" By the next morning it was now 48 degrees and I think that's when I lost my mind. Luckily we have good friends who brought over their generator and some heaters. When it got up to 55 I thought it was a heat wave! We have learned our lesson and will be getting a generator this year for sure.
Onto happier times, we had Thanksgiving with our friends down the street and saw the movie, Tangled. The girls loved it, Ella sat through the whole thing with the 3D glasses on! Then it was our anniversary, we didn't do anything special because we have an overnight trip to Seattle planned in a couple weeks!
So needless to say, I'm glad November is over, but now it's time to tackle December ;)
