The greater Seattle area is in the process of thawing out from the season's first "major" snow storm. Areas were hit with multiple inches of snow, which brought power outages to some, including my poor mom. We got lucky and our snow wasn't completely debilitatiing, however it was inconvenient and caused some cabin fever. Schools throughout Western Washington were shut down for the majority of the week as well. Some may say Seattle-ites lack coping skills, but I happily challenge them and say that we simply lack experience.
I happened to be heading home from a business trip in Vancouver, BC when the "big storm" was to hit and although I didn't encounter drastic climate changes on my train ride home, it turned ugly and Amtrak was eventually shut down, I was on one of the last trains that got through. Phew!
Per normal, we took the opportunity of snow at our house to get Cadence in her snowsuit and photo ready. Cade's been toddling well holding someone's hand or pant leg but up until recently, she hasn't been ready to go step on her own. Being confined to not only a snowsuit, but boots, and a new environment, I'd say she did quite well in her first real snow experience.
