Well, who would have thought that such a beautiful and sunny day would take such a drastic turn. At around 4:00 yesterday (right after I posted my blog entry), a huge storm hit the Chicago area and, sure enough, we lost power. So, we really did have to "rough it" for a while. We kept hoping the power would come back on before dark...but around 9:00, we decided to go to Grandma Clinnin's to spend the night. There was another big storm front moving in and we were afraid that even if the power came back on, it would be knocked out from that one. So, we dragged the kids, our two dogs and my parent's dog out to Lansing. My parent's dog, Spenser, spent the evening at Mike's house getting spoiled by the Schroeder family while Fenway and Rupert stayed with us. We came back around 10:00 this morning after I called the house and heard the answering machine come on...indiciation that the power was back! Here's a few pictures of Nate helping us prepare for impending darkness:

I'll take this one
We'll be alight now that Nate-y is on the job!
