It has been an exciting 2 days! First off it snowed in Portland! And let me tell you, I'm not exaggerating when I say, the whole town shuts down! On Sunday it snowed a half inch in the morning and then it snowed throughout the day with a total accumulation of maybe an inch and a half. Church services were cancelled, a highway was shut down, chains were supposed to be on your tires, stores closed early....and so on. You get the picture. It was really funny. Then on Sunday evening I got the call that my district closed school for Monday, so you know what that means....SNOW DAY! I haven't had a snow day since TN! Tomorrow, Tuesday, I have a 2 hour delay too...haha. It's funny when I feel like I am the one who is able to drive in the snow, whereas in MI I feel like that I'm the scary person driving. So I had a great snow day. It was nice and relaxing.
Actually it was eventful. My roommate, Rob, proposed to his girlfriend, Ali. It was fun because I got to be in on it and help plan it. It was fun being on the inside of things. I don't have any pictures of the set up, but the place looked great and it worked out really well!!
Then later during my snow day Zack and I went downtown for dinner and to go look at the huge Christmas tree.
Now it's about time for bed. Back to school tomorrow, after the 2 hour delay of coarse =). Wednesday is the last day for the kids to be at school, then they are on break until Jan. Tough week...haha.

So, first of all, I'm really excited that you blogged since I told you that you don't blog enough, haha. Also, I'm quite thrilled that I made the blog. And, it's funny because I have identical pictures from when Rob and I went to see the tree -- one of the tree, one of us, and one of me with the umbrella guy. Enjoy your snow day tomorrow. And don't try to rent Dawson's Creek from Blockbuster if you feel like watching it in your pajamas, because they don't have it!
Fun!!! I think we got more snow than you guys did. haha. I wouldn't think snow would shut down Oregon, but I guess it does. So do you have to work during the holidays, even though the kids are out?
