It's Electric!

I'll spare you all the gory details, but we were out of power for a good portion of a whole week (okay maybe like 80 hours total). It really killed my whole snow buzz that I had going right before the storm.

All in all, we survived and tried to see the good in it (as best as we could).

One day, we ventured to the Portland Children's Museum to beat the power outage blues. It's funny how there was almost a foot of snow and ice with rainy, cold drizzle in the Gorge, and it was 45 degrees and sunshine in Portland. We were walking around in our T-shirts!

You may be able to tell from these phone pictures that we were without hot water for a long time prior to this trip :)

Her lid was in full action by the end of this saga!

The Waterworks room was most definitely her fav

By the looks of the lad to N's right, she must have just let out a nasty one

At this point, I really didn't care about anything. Notice the bags under the eyes.

She's a mon-sah (monster)

Or just a cat who was spooked

It was the last day of the lego exhibition

Ahhh.... electricity

When our power came on at 11:30 AM on sunday, we did laundry, washed dishes, ran garbage disposals, blared lights, heat, music, took long hot showers, used computers, printers.....etc..... like never before. Thank you electricity. We appreciate you.
