Brrrrrrrrrrr!!!

The entire town of Tuba (and other towns and cities down south) was out of electricity and heat for about 11 hours and boy was it cold! What do you do without heat on a cold wintry night and morning? When the electricity first went out, Kono and I were still up. I could not see a thing! No moon light coming into the living room and luckily I found my cell and used the light to lead us to find a candle and match. We slept the whole night without heat and I was thinking, it's a good thing we at least have shelter and plenty of blankets. Granite's "hot body" as I always call it kept us warm too. It was pretty scary to think that we weren't fully prepared for something like this.
Anyway, Kaipo is bundled up and wearing what used to be Granite's beanie as a baby (actually all three of his siblings used this beanie). I like that it covers the ears well, and has a string to tie it, and a cute bill. It's hard to find good beanies for babies, at least for me it is. Well, we survived the night and was so glad and thankful that we got our electricity back on before we had expected.

Glad you guys kept warm! We have to try and keep warm too. It's not easy when the babies don't like to keep on blankets. You have the cutest little boys! I'm jealous of ALL their hair!
