When the power goes out

I had just finished cleaning up dinner when the power went out.  All 3 of the kids screamed simultaneously.  I told them it was okay and to stay put so they wouldn't get hurt.  I grabbed a camping lantern from the linen closet and pulled out a bunch of candles, lit them up, and placed them around the house.  It didn't take long for the arouma to permeate throughout the house.  Mmm!  The girls thought it was so cool!  Matt was confused with what was going on and stayed close by me.  I decided it would be fun to put them all in a warm bath of bubbles and candlelight.  Then we would get on our comfy's and snuggle up on the sofa and read some books.  They were having such a great time in the bath that I grabbed the camera and started taking pictures.  Some are a little too explicit to share. :)  Time passed and before we knew it the lights came back on.  I have to say we were all a bit bummed.  Although, we will be grateful to sleep warmly tonight and not have spoiled food in the morning.
