Once we got into town we were welcomed by a lovely town of no electricity. With church in less than two hours we had lots of decisions to make. We decided to have service on a very simple scale. We had the piano and the small drum. It was pretty cool. We did not expect to have very many people but God had bigger plans we had 30+ people and still had our 3 kids! So it was pretty neat to have service without electricity.

After church the real journey began. We were all very hungry and there was no power anywhere in town so we began a drive to find something with power and with food. So We found an IHOP. I have never been to an IHOP before but this was not the most wonderful experience. We waited 1 hour to be seated and another hour to be served our food. So the whole thing took forever and was pretty crazy.

After a night of craziness the town is still out of power. When Monday arrived school was closed and my work had closed so it turned into a wonderful day of rest and running. If that makes any sense at all. LOL We had a pretty relased morning. Then at lunch time we decied that 1. we needed to cook the meat that was in our fridge so it would not spoil. 2. that we should cook out in the trailor park. It was pretty cool we fed many of the children and families in the trailor park with hamburgers and hot dogs. Then we got some chicken. Subway donated their bread and the lettus. Later a woman brought us some apples and a watermellon. It was wonderful just to see different people come together to help serve and feed those who could not cook because of the power outage.
