Blackout

The Sunday before Halloween we had a horrific windstorm which knocked down a huge pine tree onto the powerlines. Suddenly our entire neighborhood was without power.

Annalee was fairly well-prepared.

A picture with the flash, and one without.

It was a pretty boring two hours (for adults). Mostly I just wanted to go to bed because it was so dark, even though it wasn't even nine yet.

Who Are We?

We are a crazy-fun family and we're happy as long as we're together.

We say "Yea" to: dogs that don't shed, fantasy books, a clean kitchen, Dr. Mario, casual athletic activities, Love and Logic, capitalism, Sobe, singing in the shower, Hispanic food, time-outs (for kids and parents), cloth diapers, coupons, Jack-in-the-Box, Taco Time, Texas Roadhouse, Olive Garden, genealogy, seeing our extended family often, children who sleep in their own rooms, holding hands, on-line computer games, garage sales, Sunday dinners, love letters, home improvement projects, making a job go faster by doing it together, (appropriate) PDA, the annual BYU-I Halloween Concert, riding bikes, adoption, the temple, and Star Wars.

We say "Nay" to: government-run health care, putting each other down, nuts in baked goods, lawn flamingos and garden gnomes, cable tv, landline phone service, watching football or nearly any other sport (yawn), ridiculous email forwards that you know couldn't possibly be true, quack grass, dandelions, not cleaning up after your dog, gossip, allergies, and saving people (or companies) from the consequences of their own choices.

We agree to disagree on: illegal immigration, cheese, the right way to load the dishwasher, Japanimation, the proper length of a good haircut, cheesecake, the temperature, whether we should bring the dog camping next time, the color pink, whether a glass of chocolate milk counts as breakfast, Chuck-a-Rama, vitamins, and which of us is more fortunate to have found the other.
