Eight and a half inches!!!

No, I am not a porn star. That is how much snow accumulation we have on the deck outside the kitchen - on the benches I scraped clean on Saturday. There was at least 3 inches of snow on them before I scraped it up for the first snow-in-the-sensory-table experiment. I saw this confirmed on the news this morning where 9.5 inches of snow are on the ground in North Seattle!

I am hoping to leave the house today to do a bit of pre-Christmas food buying (we don't have the tofurky yet!) and I am sure the shops will be swamped once it thaws. Frost is also hoping to get a few more Christmas presents (for Wren, Daddy and a couple of friends). Still, we won't be going more than a few miles from home with the chains on.

Here is a picture of Wren and I measuring snow depth after breakfast. I am still in my PJs and Wren has snow on his bottom.
