Happy Birthday Calla!

Our little niece, Calla....celebrated her 1st birthday this weekend so we all went to Bloomington, IN for the celebration. Trevor's parents and sister went as well so all the cousins were together. She was so cute! It's hard to believe she is turning one already. We had a fun weekend there.

Coming home yesterday was a different story. Bad winds from hurricane Ike and the ride home was a little scary. There were trees down every where, some that we actually saw fall...we even saw an 18 wheeler flipped over on the side as we were trying to keep the van on the road. We were coming back for CFP class but it ended up being cancelled because of all the power out in the area, trees and power lines down and roads blocked. Last night they said 800,000 in the Cincy area are without electricity but today it's down to 600,000. Luckily we are not one of them! Schools are closed...hopefully we won't be using up all the snow days for this storm.
So with the kids home today we got to clean the basement playroom...they were so thrilled!

Now they have called and said no school again tomorrow.....so maybe we can do something more exciting tomorrow. Gosh, I hate that we are wasting our snow days on power outages!
