Hurricane Irene
Irvington
Look what came to New York...Hurricane Irene.
We were ready with plenty of snacks, meals, candles, flashlights, books and dvds.
Grace was fully aware of a hurricane heading our way. She woke up on Saturday and asked if the hurricane was here yet? She also said she needed an umbrella and a hat.
We spent Saturday and Sunday hunkered down watching movies, cooking,
playing games, Gracie had her first manicure/pedicure.....
and we all did lots of staring out the window.
Grace wasn't too thrilled with the high winds.
When she saw a large branch fall off a tree,
she started to cry and called out "Daddy!!! Go fix that tree!"
Melted our hearts.
Fortunately, Irene was kind to us.
We never lost power, had some great dinners, watched some good movies,
and had quality family time.
Sadly, I can't say the same for my in-laws: a vacation was cut short, some just got power back today and some are still in the dark! R&B hang in there!!! I can only hope you two are wearing your hats, have an umbrella near by, and aren't crying out your front window!
