We have had a lot going on since our last beach post! We experienced an earthquake and a hurricane in the same week...which hopefully was a once in a lifetime opportunity. The earthquake shook us up pretty good for about 30 (long) seconds, but we were all fine. The hurricane, however, hit a little harder. Our neighbors tree fell onto both cars and the roof. We were actually lucky that the Expedition was there and kept the tree from falling through the roof into Skylar's room. We lost power for 2 1/2 days- no fun. It got a little stuffy with no a/c and we got tired of candles and flashlights, but it could have been much worse. Lots of people in Richmond were out of power for longer. We had a borrowed cargo topper on top of the Expedition that we were waiting to take back to our friends- and it got crunched too:(
Here we are in the dark setting up the porta-crib downstairs. The girls rooms upstairs were close to other swaying trees, so we kept everyone downstairs.
Fun palette on the floor....using our only electronic source of light/entertainment....a fully charged iPad!
Post hurricane wagon ride around the neighborhood to check out all the damage.
Wearing our white dresses one last time Labor Day weekend!
