Ice Storm









An ice storm has moved across much of the midwest, leaving over one million homes without power. The power outage is the second largest in Kentuckiana history; the first being the windstorm from Hurricane Ike back in September. Officials say it could be two weeks before power is restored to many families. Our family lost power for only a few hours.

For my kids, the snow and ice is a reason to celebrate and play.

* Officials now say this outage is the worst in Kentucky history, surpassing the windstorm in September.

Family Bliss








The kids and I have been on vacation this week. We've taken the opportunity to make pancakes for breakfast and mostly enjoy hanging out with each other.

Life returns to a chaotic normal on Monday.
