Ice Storm!

Well I can say I lived through one of the worst natural disasters to have hit Southwest Oklahoma. At least that's what Momma and Daddy tell me. An ice storm came and took out trees and powerlines all over and we were without power for about 6 days!! It was quite an adventure! We camped out in the gym on base that they had turned into a shelter for a few nights. But once Daddy was able to he bought a generator so we could go back home and stay. I had a lot fun playing with the kids at the gym and they had stairs there so that was a new "toy" for me. Once we could get some gas we drove to a town that had power and went out to eat. It was quite a luxury at the time. I really didn't understand what everyone was so stressed about...I had a great time!

Momma...I got this!
Enjoying some snacks before we all go to sleep on the blow up mattress!
Nice and warm in the car...and much more quiet than at the gym!
These cheese biscuits at Red Lobster are great!
I love "camping out" here!
So Silly....
Saniyya read some books to me since we couldn't watch any cartoons.
Here's just some of the down lines on base.
A tree in Saniyya's yard....
Some more of the damage....

and one of the traffic lights outside of Wal-Mart...
