Big Storm

Sunday night a huge storm came through. Luckily for Chuck it really hit hard right after the Packer game. Several trees and power lines were snapped in half throughout the neighborhood. We were out of power for over 24 hours (the longest since hurricane Ivan). The power company worked around the clock to put up and rewire several poles.

The branches fell on the fence and uprooted our apple tree (on right)

All the commotion had Sasha barking & jumping at the door. I had to put her leash on to get her to settle down. She knows she has to behave when she has her leash on. Audrey thought it meant she got to walk Sasha around the house all day. She kept walking her from room to room saying, "come on Sashie."
The kids pretending the cooler is a train. Funny how something as simple as a cooler can be so entertaining.
