Doom and Gloom

We're ok, riding out the storm, but I wanted to post this cool picture I got of our house earlier today. The power went out for a little while shortly after this was taken. We found our candles and set the kids up on the floor downstairs. The electricity came back about 45 minutes ago, so I'm taking the opportunity to download my pictures and check the news. I'll check in again tomorrow.

Somerville, with the Liangs

We spent another weekend at the lake, with the SS Monk and some friends. The Liangs have four kids too - some with ages close to our kids. Everyone ditched school and work on Friday, to make the fun last longer. It was suprisingly cool at night - next time we'll bring more warmer jammies and more blankets. I think the highlight of the trip was our campfire on Saturday night. We made S'mores and sang songs. It turns out that our children know shockingly few campfire songs, but I intend to fix that and next time the Monks will be giving a Von Trapp family performance for everyone's amusement.
