Bare Necessities

With all the storms last week, we were without power for two days.  I'm so grateful that was as bad as it got for us.  We toughed it out at home the first night, but went to Mom and Dad's the second night.  It was like one big slumber party!!  The noise and chaos was so loud that I couldn't stand it anymore and finally had to put the kids in another room to settle down...

I must admit that I take modern conveniences for granted.   Once my power was back on for two days, our water pipe busted and we were without water for 1 1/2 days.  We survived though and again, this inconvenience was nothing compared to the loss and damage that so many other storm survivors incurred.  Thank you, Lord, for keeping us safe in the storms!
