So Thankful

Our power is finally back on!! After nearly four days without power, we are finally up and running at our house. We weren't supposed to get power back until Thursday so this is very much a welcomed surprise!

Having no power was certainly not fun - we have to throw out all our food in the freezer and refrigerator, we haven't been able to wash clothes, watch tv, charge our cell phones, or even get a cold glass of water. The good news is that that is the worst we had to deal with. Our house is fine and we are safe. So many people lost so much. I am so thankful that we are fine, but I'm also so sad for our state.

If you can, please donate any supplies to the relief efforts. Needed items include:
diapers, baby wipes, trash bags, canned food, toiletry items, plastic bags, tarps, blankets, rain gear, etc. Several churches and other organiztions are taking up donations and I will be more than happy to pick up anything and bring it to a donation site. Even though we have to fill up our empty refrigerator, we will buying food for others today - for those who weren't as lucky as us.

Also, here's a site where you can donate money to the Red Cross:

I have lots of new things to post (Easter, 11 month birthday, and several more!) so stay tuned.
