Winters in Oregon when I was growing up were great! I'm sure we had rain and cold, but pretty much I just remember the snow. Whenever it snowed, we were out of school--and what is better than a snow day!! :-) My children have grown up in North Carolina--an entire continent away--and yet they have had the same experience! We love snow because we get to stay home and play in it as everything is closed down for the duration. We also never know if we will actually get snow so we have the excitement of wondering whether it will really come....
This time it came. The forecasters were calling for snow starting around 7pm on Friday night. At 6:50 (by my car clock), it began snowing. It was beautiful! It snowed most of Friday night and then it began sleeting so we can snow with a coating of ice--just right for some great sledding!

Getting the saucers out...Darin came home from college and Jenna and Erik came over so all the kids headed to the hill to sled. Darin, Sarah and Delainey stayed at their home--but one year, when Delainey is a little older, we'll get them over here for the BIG hill!! ;-)

What is Delainey sledding in? No matter the age we still little kids at heart! Did you go sledding?
Delainey is sledding in her bathtub from when she was itty-bitty. :-) I thought that was so ingenious of them!!
