Round 4 - El Campo

For those of you still reading...from round 1. I'm proud of you!!!

Round 4: Tuesday night, 12/23 - spent in El Campo with Lori's Dad, his wife, brother and sister. We were missing one sister who was in Mississippi with her in-laws.

The highlight of this round was losing power for a little over an hour...just MINUTES before we were due to open presents! Brock was all excited, and just waiting for Daddy to get out of the shower. As luck would have it, Tom had to take the second half of his shower in darkness. I held a flashlight over the stall for a while! It was pretty funny...or just "redneck" to watch Tom, Jeffrey and myself pull out those little clip on lights that attach to the rim of your hat. The boys had them from hunting, and I managed to grab an extra from Tom's pocket. Now, try explaining to a nearly 4 year old why we can't just "turn the lights back on". I told them they were broken.
Thank goodness we regained power in about an hour and just in time to resume present opening before bed.

And this is what Tom gets for falling asleep! Mean ol' Mere!
