Doot, Doo, Doo...Looking Out My Back Door...

That's what it looked like when I opened the back door yesterday. Wood pile covered up...predicting another 8-10 inches.  We headed home...here's what the pass looked like:
And then it looked like this:

Scary for me, but my hero got us home safe and sound! Weird weather patterns though...saw this heading North on I-5, just before we headed into the squall:

The trailer broke a spring and shredded a tire, but thankfully we were close to home and not on the snowy mountain pass when that happened! All in all it was a great time. I read 4 books, cut out 3 patterns, played alot of dice, did a little work on the homestead and played in the snow, had Christmas with the Godchildren and surprised my Mother-in-law with a spur of the moment visit.  Also beheld nature in her finest:

God is good! Regularly scheduled sewing will resume soon!

Yes Christiana...Oregon has a lot in common with Western Canada, although we don't have moose :( No need to get upset...things could have been way worse! Thanks for stopping by! Happy New Year to you!
