Luckily, we were spared the worst of Hurricane Irene. Since we are not near the shore my main concern was going into labor in the middle of it and being without power for a week, but obviously neither come to fruition. We were well prepared with flashlights, batteries, canned goods and even a cooler of dry ice. The worst of the winds and rain came our way about 1 am Sunday and we lost power for about an hour an a half, but it was back on before we needed to dip into any of our supplies. We had a few branches down, but our biggest loss was a few hours sleep. We were fearful of trees coming down in the wind so we all camped out on the family room floor. Here are some pictures of the boys riding out the storm.

Glad you guys are ok. We get 65-95 mph winds every year and they can be pretty scary.
