At 8:00am this morning, the snow started! It's been going all day...sometimes stronger than other times. You'd think we were in Utah.
Only in Portland would they cancel everything when the snow comes. Church was cancelled today. With how the weather is progressing, we're expecting that there will be no school tomorrow.
Portland just doesn't know what to do with snow. They don't have the equipment to clear the roads. Plus, there is the ice factor. Ice settles in quickly.
Trevor had a sad moment this morning, because he thought I wasn't going to let him play in the snow. We were working on a Christmas gift for their school teachers. He thought the snow was going to disappear in 20 minutes time (which is typical of Portland snow). Luckily for him, I think the snow is staying around.
Matt's been working on a big snow ball periodically through the day. At first, the snow was packing nicely and we had dreams of a snowman. Maybe by tomorrow.
We've had a nice day at home...playing and trying to remember it's Sunday. We wor
ked on the boys' Faith in God. Trevor and Matt both taught us some lessons and they made pedigree charts. We did have some quiet time in the afternoon, because we all needed a break from one another.

Enjoy the snow while it lasts!
We got your Christmas card today. Thanks for sending it! I'm sad to be on the mailing list instead of the goody list, too, but it was definitely fun to read your update.
A life without diapers -- how amazing!
LIfe without diapers--the things dreams are made of!
