Light's Out

Yesterday our electricity went out twice. First in the afternoon for about 2 1/2 hours and then again in the evening for about 3 1/2 hours and wow did it get HOT in this house. I'm sure it had something to do with how hot it got outside yesterday. Bret was over at a neighbor's house playing poker in the dark and I was at home with the kids. After seeking refuge in the basement until there wasn't enough light coming throught the windows, we tried to go back upstairs and tough it out. Couldn't take it. Went outside (where it was actually cooler than in the house) but it was still too humid out. Couldn't take it. High tailed it over to Grandma and Grandpa's for a sweet blast of cold air conditioning until Ryan was so tired he couldn't keep his eyes open anymore. I took them home and light up the house with candles.

Ashley helped me pick up the day's mess in the house...

...and Ryan fell asleep on the couch.
