I'm still Alive!
We brought snow/ice to Seattle again...I'm beginning to fear postings of our faces with big red slashes near TSA folks at SEA-TAC. Would you rather have locusts? (BTW, that side street is Aloha Street - Kind of ironic in my view)
I won't scoff at what passes for "snow" in Seattle since this is more than what we left behind in Vermont last Sunday. See it? The "grass" is white. It's still icy out there this morning and I really don't have much in the way of traction on my shoes either. I think I've heard tell of salt being used on the sidewalks but I'll wait a while to see before venturing out. I've got visions of my siding down some slippery slope in an embarrassing position.
So backing up..The grandkiddies came up New Years' weekend. We ventured out to the home for lunch with Great Granny and the annual height-in.....I think they each grew four inches or more over the year. I suppose we could have taken the child's coat off first but there are priorities, ya know.
Granny Morna was admonishing Demian to get the yardstick level. He may have learned that techinique from his mother...it was good for a half inch or so.
...and what good be better than a romp in the snow with a friend on your annual visit to the Grandparent's?......
...hot chocolate after and the posing of the 3 kiddies photo for posterity. I think Grandma told them to say "underpants"....;-D (Kieran,Aidan(my PIC's grandson)& Maura ) snort...she said underpants...
So in the meantime...we'll be leaving Seattle tomorrow - hopefully. I just might post again before too long but I wouldn't hold your breath if I were you.
Happy New Year.

Glad to see you're still with us. Wow, how those kids have grown.
I'm actually enjoying this winter. We've had temperatures in the 40s and 50s with just an occassionally dip lower.
