Snow Day

Growing up in Michigan, I am accustomed to winter weather, especially the snow. Someone recently posted this on Facebook that really sums it up for Michiganders...







It has been a bit of a change for me going from "life goes on despite the snow" vs. snowmageddon when two snowflakes fall here in Washington. Hence, the great Pemco commercial...








All that being said, this last storm in February was a pretty good one.

Yep, that's snow, not fog. For those of you who have been to our house, normally you can see Puget Sound out our back door, instead of this. Matthew, however, was in heaven. We spent most of the day outside making snow angels, throwing snowballs and sledding down our side hill and freezing our little tootsies off. Unfortunately, it only lasted about 48 hours. So anytime it starts to rain now, he says "maybe it will snow again". I think he's out of luck. So it looks like we might be heading to the mountains in the next few weeks so he can get another fix of the white stuff. In the meantime, he's some clips from our "snow day"...
