Grocery Shopping for Christmas

Our local Trader Joe's got some new kid size grocery carts and boy did Jadon have a ball! We did not have difficulty entertaining him while shopping. The trick is now how get him to leave the grocery cart once we are done without a protest?

Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow!

I really do not have much say in the matter, but hey! If we are going to get "unprecendented snow fall" (at least 8 inches!) and the "worst weather in more than a decade" I might as well and try to find the silver lining - At least Jadon is enjoying it and I do not have to attempt to conquer a 750 foot hill to get to work!

A White Christmas in Portland ?!?!

Merry Christmas Ian Style

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

The artic blast has visited the Portland area and boy was it cold! Jadon didn't seem to mind though cause we had to drag him kicking back into the house.

The school's have been closed for the last three days, so I am enjoying some help with the boys - I am actually completing tasks! We have traveled around Portland with chains on the car because of all the hills, the roads being iced over, and the lack of snow removal equipment by the counties here. And because the artic blast visited us twice, Jadon and mom went out to build a snowman.

Purify me with hyssop,
and I shall be clean;
Wash me,
and I shall be whiter than snow.
