It's Christmas Eve, and for the first time in a long time, we'll be having a white Christmas. Record snows have been falling in the Greater Seattle area for the last two weeks and show no signs of letting up. The picture was taken last week out the family room window. I need to take another one to show the dramatic difference between what we had then and what we have now.
I should have asked Santa for Cross Country Skis for Christmas. These conditions are perfect for getting out and enjoying that wonderful sport. As it is, I am going to try to get to REI on Friday to rent some equipement. We have a wonderful urban trail nearby that would be a perfect place for skiing.
And speaking of skiing..........the family is going up skiing tomorrow morning for a few hours at our local ski area. We'll be joined by our oldest son and his girlfriend. She has never skied before, so we bought her a private lesson as a gift for Christmas. She's nervous, and we're excited about getting out for the first time this year.
We'll head down the mountain around noon for a reunion with the other half of our children. We'll meet them at our home and begin our family celebration of Christmas.
We wish all of our family and friends a very Merry Christmas, and leave you with this classic Christmas song:
