I love Anne of GG!! It’s so funny how whenever we read books, we start to talk like the characters after a bit.. haha.

We were just talking about it and checking weather reports before bed. From what I’m reading, it’s “raining” right now but that’s 6 inches of accumulated white “rain” on my deck.

Hello! We too decided to not travel to our families for these holidays (and also live just outside of Seattle)– I was not sure how I would handle being away from my family either but I have to say it was easier than expected….was it the snow and being stuck? (It was beautiful!!! and fun!) Our kids loved every minute and played and played and played together and has a blast- Christmas morning was magical and beautiful with all the snow….it made me realize being with my own family was ok too (even though I did miss my mom/dad/sis/theirkids & everyone else)! I just needed to do it once to know that I could!!!
PS And what about the snow this evening & tonight??!! crazy!

No they haven’t but I looked it up and I can totally see the resemblance from my floating head picture. Thanks for the laugh.

Has anyone ever told you that you look like the lady in the children’s TV program from Scotland called “Balamory” shown on BBC?

We’re in the Seattle area also and I never thought I’d be so excited that tomorrow is garbage day! Our recycling overfloweth to the max. And I’m STILL waiting for some last minute Christmas presents from Amazon. Oops.

Kinda sad it’s all melted.

Thanks for sharing your pictures. We too have been snowed in and just got out to town yesterday. It’s nice to know that we are all in this mess together.

I cannot tell you how many times a week the Laura Ingalls books come to my mind. So funny to think of “that man” having a “Laura moment.”

This is the time of year when my kiddos are ever so tired of hearing about what was in Laura and Mary’s stockings on Christmas morning.

So interesting to hear about all your snow experiences. I grew up north of Seattle and had been following the Pacific Northwest “snow news” with interest on the TV. Cannot imagine that much snow without snow plows and a little salt in the picture
