No electricity

We had a power outage last night. It started at about 8:30 and went until about 4:30 this morning. When the lights went out, we were all sitting in the bonus room. Christian and I were at the computers while Lorena and Kelly were reading. We were talking and it was very nice. When the lights went out, we lit up a bunch of candles in the master bedroom, then sat on the bed and talked and laughed for at least an hour. It was very, very nice. You can talk a whole lot better when you are not sitting at the computer or reading a book. We need to do that more often. I think it will be a nice thing to try to all sit together and have a cup of hot cocoa or tea before we go to bed and to talk. That will be our plan.
