What a crazy weekend in Western Washington. I woke up at 6:20 Saturday morning, ten minutes later the power went out. I know that I have about 10 minutes of water (we have a well, no power no water). I took a quick shower, filled a few buckets for flushing the toilets and warmed up some water on the gas stove. Over 140,000 homes lost power. The bigget thing on most people mind was will we have power for the big game. This is our (Seahawks) first time at the Supper Bowl The kids all woke up freezing. We had a nice hot bowl of Oatmeal and started getting ready for the AWANA T in T Bible Quizzing. The event was changed to a different church because the power was out at CRCC. We went over to Grace Church and found out the quizzing was still going to take place even though they didn't have power. Their gym still gets good light with all the windows. But we were told - do not use the toilet. We took a couple of trip to Fred Meyers a couple mile down the road for bathroom use. What a memory. The kids will never forget this quizzing. All in all it was fun. My AGM(9)'s team took first place for book 2 and RFM(11)'s team took 2nd place for book 3. Church services were cancelled on Saturday and Sunday because of no power. We woke up Sunday morning the house was 45 degrees. We had a very hard time getting out of bed, but by noon the power was back on for us. Just in time to get ready for the Supper bowl party next door. Even after a disappointing lose, it was great to hear our team have such great attitudes. GO SEAHAWKS!!! |
