Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

So Devin took one final before school was canceled for the rest of the week.It has been crazy here. I, unlike the Portlander's, have enjoyed the snow. One of things I had a hard time adjusting to when we to moved to Oregon was the seasons. I didn't feel like they changed. It's rain or sun. So it has been nice. We are still getting snow and lot's of it. Here's some pictures from my office window from yesterday.

And this just in.....More cancelations

This week has been a trip. Devin's finals were canceled for Monday and today. School has not been in session for many schools here in the area. My work Christmas party was canceled for tonight and I am scratching my head. I guess I have always taken for granted having to learn how to drive in snow. My co-worker Matt grew up in Bountiful Utah and he said to me at work yesterday "I bet they don't cancel Christmas parties for a little bit of snow in Utah huh?" I laughed and said "no way man". We just put a good cd in the stereo, take our time and drive slow. Devin has been happy, but frustrated with the situation. He still has to take his finals, but now he will have to wait until after Christmas break to take them. He is happy for more time to prepare, but it's kinda nice to not have to think about school over breaks. He too is scratching his head. This morning the roads were perfectly fine. A little snow was falling, but no big deal. AAAAHHHHH it's so weird for us. Missing church was nice. Were taking votes on if it will happen again this weekend, because they say this weekend will be worse. Apparently an ice storm is supposed to roll through. Good luck to all our student friends traveling this weekend. Drive safe!!!!

Church Canceled?.....Are you serious?

That's right folks. We woke up to this this morning. Portland has been below freezing and our rain turned to snow. Since Portland only get's storms like this every few years they are not equip to handle them so we did not have church today! This is the view from our upstairs spare bedroom at the beginning of the storm. It snowed pretty much most of the day. It was pretty awesome.

Our back yard as the storm was at it's worst.

Super Saturday

We had super Saturday yesterday and we made so many things I was like a kid in candy store trying to decide what to make. We learned how to Etch glass which was awesome. Here is some of what I did. The top stares Modge Podge frames, Vinyl signs, and my candle holders.

Here is a better picture of my candle holders.
