We've had a crazy 2 weeks, but it's almost Christmas! 10 days ago we were hit with a major ice storm that brought some of the worst power outages in decades to the area. We lost power Friday morning, got it back Sunday afternoon, then lost it again monday night. Peter was fortunate enough to have available to him a generator from work on Tuesday, along with some help in hooking it up. We were still left without power, heat, or running water for several days. Poor Preston had to wait while his bottles warmed up by the fire and he didn't much like the darkness either. We all survived, although our Christmas cards went out late and our tree just got decorated yesterday. Since it's been so long, this will be a big post with lots-O-pictures!
With that behind us, we got a foot of snow this past Friday and today we're getting another 10" or so. It's looking like we'll have a white Christmas for sure!! Preston got to see santa for the first time. He didn't quite know what to make of him, but he got a big 2008 winter teddy bear.
We can't wait to be home with him for 2 weeks, too! He'll be 9 months old on Christmas day. He's got a new nickname, too; Billy Goat. This kid chews on and eats (if we let him) EVERYTHING. Especially magazines and paper!!!!
Peter made these 2 Billy Goat pictures to look like an old Polaroid
These are some of the pics that didn't make it on the Christmas cards.
