We got our first snow of the year in the Seattle area a few weeks ago. For all of you who live in places where it actually snows regularly, this might not seem to be something to take note on, but around here, it means that people lose their minds. Now, this storm was a little different than the average snow that causes people to freeze in fear before even pulling out of their driveways. In some places we received two feet of snow, and had temperatures that ranged from the low 20’s to the mid 30’s. This weather would have at least put a kink in a city’s operations that was prepared and equipped for snowy winter weather, but for a place like Seattle, if you didn’t live on a flat, heavily traveled road, you were out of luck (and at times, even that wouldn’t do it). Lucky for us, we live about a 2 minute drive from a grocery store (all flat too!)- so we were able to get out and stock up before things got really bad.

Sunday’s are for football in my house. The weather cools down, we get cozy, turn on the TV, and unfortunately this year watch our beloved Seahawks get rocked week after week (as I write this the Hawks get walked all over by the Steelers – boo…). Sunday’s are a much welcomed break from my normally insane work, school, homework and some sleep weeks. Being a full-time employee, college student and wife can be too much to handle at times. So Sunday each week is looked forward to with great anticipation and excitement.

Growing up I had a best friend, Ashleigh. She and I knew each other from the time we were babies. Our parents were friends before we were born. In fact, our dads were in each others weddings. When her parents got divorced and her mom moved Ashleigh and her sister to Eastern Washington, my younger sister and I spent a couple weeks visiting them each summer. Those were some of the best weeks of my childhood. We got to go all over town, see the illustrious boys of Yakima, stay up late, and just do what young girls do (including but not limited to: dressing up in ridiculous outfits and pretending to be movie stars, making up dances to to N’Sync and Britney Spears songs- which by the way, were pretty cool then, dreaming about the boys that we would meet who would sweep us off our feet, and eating popcorn and candy among other not-so-great for you foods all hours of the night).
