BLIZZARD!

It was snowing when we woke up yesterday, but there was very little on the ground. That quickly turned into the biggest blizzard I can remember since 1982 - which also happened to be around Christmas. Seriously some drifts are more than 3 feet. I'm sure we got at least 18 inches of snow and it's STILL SNOWING as of 8:00 this morning. As you can see, our patio furniture is buried, the grill has a pile - the snow is piled up against the back door about 8-inches. I will get a measuring stick out later when it stops and I get to start shoveling. The last picture is of our neighbor's car parked at the end of the alley.
Jonah says: "I like to play in the snow and, um, we can, um make a snowman because there's a lot of snow. And the fences are filled up with snow. And the part of the windows are covered up with snow. Daddy and me can help build a really BIG snowman. I think that's all - I'll talk about snow later."
One more thing - Ken was in Portland for business and was scheduled to come home Tuesday night, but his plane was cancelled for non-weather related reasons. He attempted to find another flight, but the soonest he could be confimed on one was Sunday afternoon. Seeing as how that's Christmas eve and 4 days away, he and his co-worker rented a car and are driving today. Please pray for their safety!
I guess we'll have a white Christmas this year : )
