Snopocalypse 2010


Me and Mommy outside for the first snowflakes of the season

Daddy and me catching snowflakes with our tongues (yummy)



Little did we know it would turn out like this . . . .
I know, it's not a lot of snow, right?
This is Tuesday afternoon. I didn't have my camera with me at daycare on Monday to take pictures of this mini blizzard that started coming down. The temperatures have been in the mid 20's for the last couple of days and the teens at night. Snow, cold, wind. That led to the nightmare commute that Mommy and Daddy had to endure on Monday night. They tried 2 different ways of getting to my daycare from downtown Seattle. Mommy leaving at 3:00 and Daddy leaving around 5:00. Mommy finally got to me at 7:30. We picked Daddy up later at 9:00.
Mommy said the highlights of her trip was the "party" bus she was on. A lot of good people with good attitudes that were on a bus that at one time traveled approximately 5 blocks in the span of 2 hours.
Daddy said his highlight was getting off a bus after 2 hours and hiking for about 2 miles in the weather to find a kind bus driver that was using his bus as a taxi.
I didn't mind the wait for one of them to arrive. I had a nice lady at daycare that was going to spend the night with me and 3 of my friends if it took Mommy and Daddy too long to get me. Mommy did get me (only 1 hour after closing) but the nice lady spent the night at daycare anyway. She had to go the opposite way to get home. After hearing the stories of the other parents she decided to just stay there.

Whew! What a day. Bonus: Mommy and Daddy stayed at home on Tuesday for the "snow day" :)
