Everything gets canceled and it turns in to a quiet day at home doing things you usually don't have time for.
L. took advantage of her time today by starting a new sewing project - a Raggedy Ann doll. She received the pattern and all the material supplies from grandma yesterday for Christmas and she couldn't wait to get started.
She had a productive morning cutting out all her fabric pieces and embroidering the doll's face and heart.
We also played outside for a while. The girls opted to sled while I decided to ski a loop around my neighborhood to check out the road conditions.
No plows had been by all day so the road was a nice surface to ski on this afternoon.
But the plows finally did make it around to us a few minutes ago and now we have a large snow wall blocking our driveway entrance. I guess I'm going to have to do some shoveling before Fino gets home. He's going to have his hands full snow blowing our long driveway, cutting a path to the chicken coop and digging the trash barrels out of the snow.
But it's great for our cross country skiing adventures. We're planning on exploring some new trails this weekend.
Where do you like to cross country ski in the Portland area?
