No Power

Well we have lived here for over 2 years and we have just recently discovered what to do when the power goes out, and that is pack up and prepare for a whole day at the beach. When you are at the beach in the nice refreshing water you could care less that you have no power at home. So we forgo trying to nap in the stifling hot air and don't worry about the lack of showers and camp out at the beach. This past weekend we had a "scheduled" power outage from 8am-5:45pm and so we had a wonderful family day together, even though with 3 kids it is pretty exhausting.

Anna and I enjoyed a couple of hammock naps. This reminds me of this picture of Ellie at this age.


And although Anna has been to the beach a handful of times this was her first dip in the pool.


And super flexible Ellie decided she would just crawl in the tent and take a nap for 2 hours.



So I am thankful for an unexpected family day at the beach, but heres to hoping there are no more all day power outages while we are here in Honduras.
