Heavy Snow

So today we continued to get more snow. I think we have about 8 inches. Casey called out at work which was a good idea since the van is a mile away in a parking lot. When we got up this morning the snow had a thick layer of ice on top. Very hard to walk in let alone drive in. Portland required chains on all vehicles and recomended that you just stay home.






Annie was very confused at first because she just slipped and then fell through the ice. But she got use to it by the end of the day.











She had fun chasing her ball in the snow! It would go under the ice and she would dig it out. It was great fun watching her use up some energy.



She fell asleep on the couch when she was done. She is adorable.


The news said we are still in for more snow tomorrow, so we will just have to see what happens, I think some one confused Portland, Or with Michagin.

Light Snow??

Portland/Vancouver was suppose to have light snow this morning and much heavier snow later tonight maybe 6 - 10 inches So we have postponed our Family Christmas Party until Tuesday hoping it will be better by then. Well the light snow has dumped about 4 or more inches on us I can't wait until tonight!!

Casey took the van to work today, it has studs and he was comming home around 3:00pm when he was unable to get up our hill down by the main road, so he went on down to another road and that didn't work either, so he walked the back way home about a mile. Pat and Annie met him and walked him home.



Annie remembered her jacket, did Casey?
He has at least 1/4" of snow on his head!




I think someone needs to sit by the fire with a cup of tea.




LIGHT SNOW! Tomorrow should be fun.

I hope everyone stays safe and warm.
