oh, lovely snow!

after a delay and a plane switch, we were airborne and on our way to Oregon. we got to Doug's parents' house a little after 2am, Oregon time, Friday morning. the roads were a little slick and we saw snow! i woke up to this view outside my window:

and this is the front, the driveway: (isn't it just so beautiful?)

see the falling snow flurries?


the bare apple trees. we played as the sun set:

we made a snowman, too!


at the end of the night, a nice warm fire was started:
so fun! and it's only just begun! and congratulations on your retirement, grandpa rob!!!

brrrrrrr. I was getting chicken skin just looking at your photos. We're going to Utah tomorrow and I don't think we are prepared. We have no warm clothing.

Have fun and MERRY CHRISTMAS!
