Snow Day #3

SO here we are. Day number 3 and we are still getting snow. This is amazing for the Portland Metro area. We woke up to 5 inches of snow. At least that's what was on our deck. Dave did not make it into work today. He was about to head out but then decided that it just wasn't worth the risk of getting down the mountain. We live up at about 500 feet. Just down at the bottom of the mountain and going into town probably wouldn't be that hard but getting down there was the problem. So we had another snow day here. Mia, though sadly, woke up with a stomach bug and has spent her day on the couch or in bed sleeping. But the boys, including Dave at times were out side playing, sledding and moving snow with the tractor or being pulled behind it on the sled. The afternoon was mostly raining or snow mix so it is very slowly melting away but there is another storm coming tonight possibly bringing more snow. I guess we will just wait and see in the morning if Dave gets another day here or has to make the trip into town.




it is the best kind of snow too. Great for packing down.

the boys made a sled jump which they were having a blast with yesterday and today. Dave said that they were getting pretty far down the hill too. 


Our honey bees. I sure hope they are staying warm.
