Winter is here! It started to snow up in Bellingham on Thursday – enough, in fact, that I left early so I wouldn’t have to drive in it in the dark! By Friday morning it was bad enough up there that we felt it prudent that I work from home instead of braving the elements in my pickup truck.

Well, last night the snow came here as well! We woke up to a winter wonderland, so of course we had to spend plenty of time outside in the snow. Not as much as the snow storm we had last winter, but enough to get a few decent sled runs down the street, and to make a few snowballs, and to build a very short snowman. The girls had a great time with their neighbor friend, a young girl about Sarah’s age that we hardly ever see – except when it snows!

Much of the snow has already melted away – but the forecast calls for possibly more tonight, so we’ll see what the day brings!
