Snowy Day

One Monday night on Jan. - 26 - 09. There was a huge mix/ice storm. When we woke up there was a huge tree on the ground outside our mom & dads bedroom my dad was at work and our power still worked. We were surprised of what we saw outside!!! Because we saw all our trees covered in ice but the bad part was the trees wore bending down because of the weight of the ice on them. After a while our power shut down. So we went next door to our grandma’s house. Because they had a generator there. Our dad was at work and they ordered a generator but on the way the generator flipped over and broke on the way to Harps. So they ordered another one so he waited from 9:00 P.M. ~ 4:00 A.M. in his truck no sleep at all either. Back at our grandma’s house we were watching Ace Ventura pet detective it’s a really funny movie to. We called my dad and said when you get home just heat up the chili but that was before we knew he was going to stay over night. That night our dog Macie every time a tree or a tree branch fell she would bark so that night I didn’t get much sleep at all. That day at about 1:00 our friends Kole, Kevin, Donnel, and Dominique came over for a little while. When they left we started watching movies again and TV that’s when it still worked. Because that night before we went to bed we were watching TV then it went out. So we went to bed. The next day we didn’t do anything but watch movies and go outside and at 8:00 dad got back home. We were so exited then he took a shower and he didn’t scream when he came out he said it was so cold then it got warm!!! We all said me next then all of a sudden the power went out. So we went to bed. The next morning the energy was here and they said if you power isn’t on in a little bit it will tomorrow morning we were so exited!! So we went to bed and at one o’clock they said the power came back on. My family were glad because we finally go to go back home!!!! So there you have it that’s the Snowy Day for you.



HA! Isn't that great?!
