A Thanksgiving To Remember

Hey, all!  I suppose you have been wondering, "How was your Thanksgiving?"  Well, this post should tell ya all about it!

Wednesday:

We had power for the day.  Just a normal school day.  Until...it started snowing!  That's right, snowing.  And I mean really snowing!  So.  What's so important about that?  Well, later that night we found out.  The power went out.  Of course!  The day before Thanksgiving and the power went out.  Great.

Thursday:

Well, Happy out of power Thanksgiving!  That's what we said.  The day was all fine and dandy (and cold) 'till it was time to go to our Babci and Pepe's (grandmother and grandfather) house.  Of course, as you know, we have a dog, Nellie.  We couldn't just leave her at our house in the cold!  But we couldn't bring her there either.  If we did bring her....well, lets just say that there would be doggie puke all of the car.  Not a good thing.  So, who would stay?  Well, my mom said that she could really use a nap.  She said that she was really tired because of the loss of power.  She said that it would be okay for her to stay.  So, she did.

We drove to Babci and Pepe's house.  We got there, had a great time, stuffed our faces with yummy food, had dessert, and headed back home.  The time there felt like a heartbeat.  Though, it really wasn't.  Babci and Pepe made some really great food this year though.  Like, really good.  But now it is time to tell you what happened when we got home.

My dad had asked Pepe if he could bring home his generator.  Pepe said yes, and my dad brought it home and hooked it up.  It worked!  But, there was only one problem.  We only had less than a full can of gas.  It would only last us about an hour...so we thought.

Friday:

The next morning we woke up, astonished!  The generator was still running!  We're pretty sure that God did that.  It was just like the loaves of bread mericle!  Friday was just almost like a normal day.  We went outside and played, did some electronics, ate warm food, all of that great stuff.  Sleeping was as nice as ever.

Saturday:

Well, Saturday was just like Friday.  Not really much different, actually.  But now, the humming of the generator started getting on our nerves a bit.  We were kind of getting sick of that noise outside...

Sunday:

Guess what came back?  No, not power...yet.  Actually, what came back was the cable and internet!  But still, no power.  But hey, now we could watch the football game!

Later on in the day, my dad went to go check if there was power...sure enough, there it was!  We had power again!  Whoohoo!  We were really excited!  Everyone took showers, and then went to bed.  A nice, non-generator-noise night.




Thanks for viewing!  I hope you had a great Thanksgiving too!
