time flies when you're in the dark

Yesterday as I made my much dreaded drive from Orem to Taylorsville, I heard on the radio that there were some gusty winds coming our way (blowing yet another snow storm into the valley). I walked out of my class around 3:30 and was nearly knocked off my feet by the wind! The drive home was nerve-wracking as semis swerved and cars shook from sudden intense gusts. 

I wasn't feeling well once I arrived home (darn those pesky caffeine headaches!), so I decided to take a nap. 
When I woke up, the power was out.


My first reaction was panic, of course, that I would not be able to do my homework.

And my second reaction, once I met up with my mom and sister, was PARTAY!

It was like an unplanned Girls Night Out. We lit a whole bunch of candles throughout the house, ordered Pizza Hut, and had a Bieber dance-off in the kitchen. And we had way too much fun... enough so that we turned the lights back off after they had flickered on.  

I have never had so much fun. Oh wait...
