Irene Fun

Ok, so maybe Evelyn wasn't the only one going stir crazy with the storm. Maybe her parents were too. ;) Saturday morning we were going to go to breakfast with some of our friends. IHOPs power went out though right before we were supposed to go so we had everyone over here for pancakes and games instead. We forgot to take pics of the fun, so we had to snap a quick one right before everyone ran back to their homes.

Thanks Wrights, Karen and Melissa for coming to our hurricane party! :)


Sunday night we headed over to the Kiewiets to grill and hang out with friends by candle light. :) Evelyn was so excited that Ava was there. She followed her around all night. It was the first time I've really seen Evie be conscious of another little person and to try to follow them around and do everything with them. Ava was very patient. :)

During the storm Evie rediscovered her love for climbing stairs and tried desperately hard to keep up with Ava. :)

To her discruntlement, Ava is still much faster.

Ava also introduced Evie to Doritos on Sunday. :p I look over to see Ava breaking off tiny pieces of her chips and feeding them to Evelyn who was loving it! It cracked us up. :)

Our last hurricane fun came on Monday morning. This little Richmond refugee came with his Mommy to enjoy some AC and take advantage of our washer and dryer - all of which they were missing in their powerless house and smashed garage.

we headed to Firehouse subs for lunch. Nathan and I had never been there and we loved it! (Oh yeah, Nathan's office didn't have power on Monday so he got to work from home. :) He took a little break to go to lunch with us!) IMG_1940.JPG
Thanks, Liz and Sam, for coming to Williamsburg to take refuge! :)
