Snow Day

The weather man said it wouldn’t happen but it finally did. It snowed!

It started out pretty light at 10 am and then gradually picked up throughout the day. Zack decided to come home early to beat the snow. Unfortunately he got caught in a horrible traffic tie-up due to a 20 car/semi-truck fatality accident on I-5. Six hours later and after having to chain up to make it up our hill, he made it home safe and sound!

After Zack got home, the snow really started to pick up…

By dinner time, we had about 5 inches!

But since you never know if it will last here in the PNW, we went out to do a bit of sledding on the street just around the corner. Not a lot of traffic up here on snowy days.

But first the boys did a bit of messing around…

It’s an igloo in the driveway…

William decided to try it out…

Everything was covered in snow…

The snow was a bit too powdery to ride the sled down on your stomach… LOL

The guys decided sledding would be more fun if there was a pile of snow to aim for at the bottom…

Yup! It was!

Will got a bit bored and decided to make a snow angel and then bury himself…

He needed a bit of help at the end…

Wait! Where’d he go???

There he is!

        

I just had to take a few more shots of all the snow-covered bushes in the pretty pink light from the house…
