Oh the weather outside is frightful, but the snow is so delightful! OK, I know, I know, the song doesn't really say that the snow is delightful (the fire is delightful), but this is how I have always sung it and I like my version better! For the past four days we have been dumped on by snow! It has been GREAT! I love the snow! It is pretty rare to get any good snow in the Seattle area. It is even rarer to get snow that lasts more than a few days. Because of this...chaos galore erupts in Seattle when it snows. Schools and business' close down, roads close, people abandon their cars and pretty much all life stops. For many areas of the world a foot of snow would not cause people to be 'snowed in' for days on end... but in Seattle we like our snow days! When I was a kid I would pray and hope for snow. Sadly... we never got much.
Until now! So far we have about a foot of snow... and it is supposed to snow Tuesday night. Woo Hoo! As annoying as it is out on the roads I think that the snow is pretty, and I am hoping that it doesn't melt and we are able to have a white Christmas!
Other than playing in the snow I really haven't been doing too much lately. I have been very lazy the past week. The exact opposite of a year ago. I have been able to get some fun digital scrapbooking done though! Here is a page I did with some pictures of all of the northwest snow! If you click on the picture you can view a larger image.
