Let It Snow, Let It Snow

So as my dad puts it, in Michigan when it snows they say "Oh *&%#" in Washington we say "Oh yeah". We got about 6-8 inches of snow yesterday (which is pretty unheard of here) and people got a little crazy (ok, maybe us included). Here's some pics from all of the fun....









It was loads of fun. The weather also put a bit of a crimp in my mom and dad's day of travel to get here. They flew from Detroit to Baltimore to Chicago to Seattle. And then their luggage got lost on top of it all. But they are here safe and sound and enjoying the snow as well...


Did I mention our power went out from about 10pm to 3am last night? We've heard horror stories that during outages, power doesn't get restored here on the island for days. So we are very fortunate to have our electricity back.
Well got to run for now. We still have decorating to do and a Christmas menu to plan.

Merry Christmas - looks like you took some of Michigan with you to Washington State! Hope you all stay toasty and well fed!
