Snowy Sunday

Sunday morning we woke up to even more snow, and it was very cold...around 24 degrees.

My rose bush under a blanket of snow.

Our deck with the chairs that Larry never got around to putting away for the winter.

Anyone for a picnic?

Always hard though if you have to get out and go to work or make some 'time' getting someplace. You got a lot. I was looking on the extended forcast and it looks like you're getting more this week. We're hoping for decent roads driving up to Seattle on Friday and Saturday. Yes, will special meeting happen this year due to bad weather????? We'll see :-); December 15, 2008 at 8:24 PM

Welcome to Our Place - Updated for Spring 2012

We live between Marysville and Granite Falls. Larry still works at Crane-Eldec in Lynnwood, but due to a change in his work schedule in February 2011, he is no longer in a van pool. Instead he bought himself a Ford Focus to use as his work car. Shirley is Mom, "chauffeur," and chief bunny caretaker. We have two daughters: Rosanna, age 20, and Caroline, age 17.We used to have two pet bunny brothers, Lucky and Thumper, who turned 9 years old on October 5. But Lucky got really sick, and had him put to sleep a few days before Christmas last year. So sad.... Thumper doesn't even miss him; he is happy as long as he is fed!

Larry and Shirley are really into running this year, qualifying for Half Fanatics in January. The Seattle Rock-n-Roll half marathon will be our fourth in 2012, and we would like to do four more, if possible, and move up in Half Fanatics!
Caroline is a junior in high school, and Rosanna continues to work at the Ralph Lauren Polo store at Seattle Premium Outlets in Tulalip.

We all continue to enjoy taking photos, and Rosanna also took a photography class at Everett Community College last spring. (We bought her a Nikon DSLR for the class). She has made some money doing photography for a local business in nearby Granite Falls last fall. And I am still using my super tiny Olympus camera for photos "on the run!"
