Wait! Never mind!

Well look, now it's snowing! I love it, even though Washington snow is as grey and dreary as you could get. I hope it sticks and then I hope it doesn't all at the same time. I hope it does because that is ridiculously fun, and I hope it doesn't because then we get stuck at home drinking powdered milk when we run out of the real stuff. That happened last time. I felt like some poor stranded person who had to drink this disgusting disgrace to the name of dairy to survive. We didn't die, but it was this close... *holds fingers very close because you obviously couldn't see what I was referring to when I said that. You not not being right here and all...*

Daaaaaaaang...

Well is was snowing, but it stopped before this stupid page loaded. That was fun...

Black Friday

I swear that when I am old enough to drive, I am going to go shopping on Black Friday. We never go, just stay home, but I still think I would like it... ;)
And do you know what made this day the best one ever,even though it just started? Eating a piece of pumpkin pie for breakfast... :D

Chase

My uncle and aunt are over right now, they are playing Wii. My little cousin Chase is so cute! ;D He has an adorable little face and his head smells like fabric softener. He has a little blue binky he always sucks on...
 Here is a pic...

I went out to get the mail earlier without a coat. I came back in and my nose was numb. I think you could have cu off my limbs and I wouldn't have felt it. ;D

Congratulations… It’s a blizzard…

Oh my gosh, there is sooooo much snow out here! And the wind is really stinging. We went up to our hill to go sledding and the Hathaway's came along with Spencer and Isabella. We had a lot of fun and they are still sledding out there in the dark. The creepy thing is that cars kept skidding all around us and one nearly ran over Brent. It blared it's horn really loud though, so he could escape.

I'm kind of freakin' out a little though, because my dad is out there right now on a bus and there have been almost fifty crashes on the freeway today…

Hit the brakes! My car is sliding off the road!

It's snowing out right now and my mom had to park at the top of our hill because it was just too slippery to go down. When we used to live in Colorado, we all had snow tires, the roads were cleared and salted, and people didn't go spinning around in little circles if one of their tires clipped a patch of ice. Here they definitely go spinning. Two winters ago, when it was absolutely too terrible for words, almost the whole of both neighborhoods were parking their cars along Ingram!

We were going to go Thanksgiving shopping this morning, but my mom is going to wait until later because of all the ice. I hope we don't get stranded here by one millimeter of snow! (I'm not even kidding, it's like a layer of peach fuzz out there…)

This morning I was getting some juice out of the fridge, and a naked turkey scared me. Usually, we buy a frozen turkey and leave it in its wrapper to melt until we pull it out and clean it Thanksgiving morning. But this year, my dad is dry brining it and so he apparently took it out late last night and put it in a pan all covered with salt. So yes, naked turkeys in the fridge scare me…

Whoa! Our neighbors just came skidding down the hill! You could actually hear the tires grinding! Oh yes, winter in Washington… I'd almost forgotten what it was like… Almost…
