dear snow, i love you. from, anna

it's a cozy kind of day. i've gotten a few things done already, like a couple of loads of laundry, and whipped up some cinnamon oatmeal and hot chocolate for breakfast, but i still keep crawling back under the covers between each thing. grom, our trusty hound, is wound in a tight ball by my left leg, our bedroom blinds are open so that i can watch the snowflakes coming down, while simultaneously monitoring the "december storm" on NW channel news. matt had to venture out this morning for The Big Presentation he had at work, and he shoveled many-much snowflakes before he was on his way. the snow is a-coming down and it's actually beginning to look a lot like christmas in the greater seattle area. for once.

we get to snatch up Brothre Tim when he arrives later today! we've been without him for 3 christmases and 3 birthdays. it is sure to be no less than a trek to the airport tonight; we are planning for hours, with the way the freeways have been looking. but it will be worth it, for we will have a flip-flop-footed sojourner in our backseat on the way home! just in time for his birthday #22 tomorrow! some rainbow chip cake may be in order.

and a quote from the over-enthusiastic newscasters: "seatac airport looking like a snow globe!"
