We had quite the exciting Valentine's Day to report! When Asher woke up to eat just before 2am, I realized that the power in the house (and the neighborhood) had gone out. Usually, this isn't a big deal and you just wait till the morning and go back to sleep, but when the weather is in the single digits and you have little ones that need to stay warm, it causes a bigger issue. We brought Asher into bed with us at 2am and brought Riley to the party at 5:30am. When the house got down to 54 degrees, we invited ourselves to visit Zee. We packed up the car with the kids, the dog and some necessities - and had a lovely morning/afternoon just making ourselves at home in a house that had lights and heat! The power came back on at noon, so the rest of the day was spent relaxing and making up for a long night.
This evening, we celebrated Valentine's Day with pizza! It took quite a long time for the pizza to be delivered so in that time, Chris and Riley entertained themselves by playing in the basement and running around like crazy people, expending all of their energy. Asher and I camped out in his room, choosing to be a little more civilized and calm. I managed to snag Riley for one minute and this is the best picture I was able to get of the two boys - the other ones literally had Riley as a blur cause he is always on the move.
Hugs and kisses to everyone and happy Valentine's Day!

I LOVED being the "rescue house"! You're always invited over...not just to escape the cold!
