Snow Day

As previously mentioned, we are getting a TON of snow here in Seattle. They don't plow or shovel, so you really cannot go anywhere when it snows and the city shuts down. Church was canceled for us today, so we ventured out into the whirling snow.

We made a snow man in our side yard, and it took about ten minutes to make, literally. The snow was perfect for a snow man, and Hayes was so excited because we have been reading about Frosty, and James and his snow man.

We also tried some snow angels and a little bit of snowball fighting. Hayes decided he wanted to go in after about forty-five minutes, I think that all snow was too much for his little legs to try and maneuver. Hayes and Madison topped off the night with The Grinch, while Joe and I packed for our attempt to flee Seattle tomorrow for the plowed streets of Yakima! Wish us luck!

AAH! Be safe driving! It is crazy down in here in Vancouver too (yeah, they don't plow everything--and people DO NOT know how to drive in the snow!). I hope you guys get to your destination safe! We can't leave (84 is closed) , and we were supposed to be in Utah by now : ( But we can't complain--I LOVE this white winter! Merry Christmas you guys!
