It's still Snowing......!

I have to say, I feel like a little kid today, watching the snow continue to fall here in Renton. I am amazed that it continues to pile up! After last nights' storm, I thought we were done. But, at about noon, it started again and hasn't really stopped since. What a beautiful sight! I can't remember the last time we have had this much snow. I know it's hard to drive in, and people get cabin fever. But really, how often does this happen around here? Hardly ever. So, I say sit back with your mug of hot cocoa and enjoy the moment.


We had a fun day today, playing in the snow. Jeremy got his three wheeler working and was like a little kid playing with his toys. He took Derick for a ride which was fun to watch. They rode down to the end of the street, did a slow doughnut or two and then came back up to the house. Derick did some sledding right here in our driveway. It's the perfect hill for him, not too fast but he can still get some speed up for some good fun. Jerry came by for a visit as did Josh and Nikanne. They watched the Seahawks win, even while playing in the snow! I took advantage of the extra hands around and napped while Derick did. Then, we had pizza and meatball subs and visited while watching the snow start piling up outside. As I sit here, it continues to dump. I like to watch if fall in the streetlamp light.

Oh that brings back such good memories (since I DID grow up on your street, after all!) Your house wa the one we'd always sneak onto to go sledding down. haha! But the hill that you live on is great fun too...just a little nerve wracking for the intersection at the end! haha! Looks like you guys had so much fun!
