Yesterday we went for a drive up to Mt.Hood so we could play in the snow. Last week was upsetting as the forcast kept promising snow, and then it never happened, we even had school cancelled on thursday because it started snowing, but then nothing happened and it was a beautiful sunny day. We pulled off into a camping area and let Isaac and Bogey run around. Isaac had only seen a dusting of snow, so he had a great time throwing snow in the air and running around. He kept saying NO! NO! (snow, snow) It was bitterly cold though, so we did not stay out too long. These are pictures from yesterday
Last night the newscasters called for a dusting os snow this morning, and after last week, I did not believe them. Much to my suprise it was snowing hard when I got up this morning! Isaac was soooooooooooo excited as he had never seen so much snow. This is a picture taken of Isaac trying to catch snowflakes on his tongue this morning in front of our house.
We got about 3 inches before it stopped around noon. Of course the entire Portland area is having a cow as everyone is stuck on the freeways. Why is it that when we get more than a dusting of snow, the news is on all day! When they started talking about whether the snow was good for snowballs I had to turn it off. The big discussion last hour was how they hadn't recieved any pictures from viewers of hummingbirds. Too bad.. hehehe. News is so fun to make fun of!
Chris went into work before it got bad, and now has to drive home in it! He went on his lunch break and bought chains, hopefully he wont have to stop too much. He promised me he would come home before it gets dark. (He normally has a 35 minute commute, but I bet it will take at least an hour if not more) ugh.
We went out for a walk in the snow earlier, unfortunatly we have no sled, but Isaac doesnt care, he just wanted to walk in it. It was all fun and games until his gloves fell off and then he cried because it was cold. He kept saying "owie,,,cold" poor thing.
As I have been writing this, my poor neighbor has been trying to get his car up the hill of our culdesac, he has gotten half way up and then slid back into his driveway at least 10 times....of course he is driving a mini with no chains, go figure. At one point he skidded the wrong way and about ended up in our front lawn. :-)
