Lights out!

So for 'Earth Hour 2009', Hubby & I turned off all lights (nightlights included), & reminisced by candlelight all cuddled up together for 3 hours (versus one) while Mother Nature was playing an early April Fool's prank & giving us an all night snowstorm outside blowing 3" of snow on the ground! Thankfully the kids slept through the night & although we didn't make it to the city as planned, these images are pretty amazing.

Some people protest it saying what difference does one hour make? The point is start making a change in your daily life, even small ones & become more aware of your impact on the earth. It's to make a statement that you're willing to try & make a change. That is the difference that Earth Hour makes.
