we have been making the most of the last week of summer vacation by tackling all of the unchecked items on our summer to-do list. trips to all our favorite parks, the aquarium to see the dinosaur exhibit, the natural history museum (again to see the dinosaurs, and the whale), playschool, the beach, my husband's company picnic (see pic above), and now we are hunkering down for our first real hurricane.
we were directed by the town to evacuate but i think evacuation is not necessary. our apartment is on the second floor, it has new windows (none of which are large), we have plenty of water and food, and our landlord (who grew up in our apartment) seems to think it will be fine. we did park one car at a nearby middle school that is up a hill, just in case we are super flooded and something happens to our car. this morning we went to the library and got tons of books and even a movie. i have lots of games to play, forts to make, and legos to build with to keep us occupied for the next 24+ hours.
as a last resort if it gets super scary, i got sparking apple cider so that we can have a storm party to ease some fears and we'll sing favorite things. :)
wish us luck!
