Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Part II

For the last two weeks, we have been basically snowed-in here in Portland. We got over a foot of snow, and church was even cancelled for both weeks. My parents and David came up the Friday before Christmas, and they both just barely made it in between storms. I couldn't believe how much snow we got! I guess it was the most snow in 40 years, or something like that. Even when we left to drive to Ashland yesterday morning, we still had to leave our chains on to get out on our street and to the main roads. Here are a few more pictures of Landon playing in the snow.

This was last Sunday, before we got another five or six inches to top this off.

Just after this picture, Landon came to the window with a sad, sad face saying he had lost his little rocket in the snow. We were worried at first that it may have gone the way of the blue boot that he lost at Grandma and Grandpa Malan's last Christmas that wasn't found until April when the snow melted. Luckily, Uncle David came to the rescue, and we had this picture from just a few minutes before with the rocket in hand. After a little digging, David found the rocket and was the hero for the day. :)
