Parents of three Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos weathered Hurricane Sandy at home in downtown NYC.

"We're in full blackout mode," the Live! With Kelly and Michael host, 42, tweeted October 29.

After the storm, the spouses of 16 years strolled the city, laughing and holding hands November 1.

Though their marriage is stronger than ever these days, last year Ripa admitted to Us Weekly that, like any couple, they have their moments.

"We bicker daily," she said, laughing. "We are the Bickersons!"

Despite the mini-disagreements, "He's the love of my life," Ripa tells Us of the actor, 41. "He makes me better."
