Moving and Snowing

Well, folks, we've gotten completely moved into our new place, in large part due to help from friends and family. We moved on Friday - a beautifully clear, but chilly day. The weather couldn't have been more perfect. It didn't even rain on us! Two of my coworkers brought a race car trailer to haul all of our stuff in and numerous friends helped us move all of our things into the new place. Our moms and two of Tim's siblings came from Eastern Oregon to help us out too! The moms cleaned the old place on Saturday until it shone and completely set up our new kitchen for us - what a blessing! Then we woke up Sunday morning to snow, both on the ground and falling steadily from the sky! This is pretty exciting precipitation for Eugene when such moisture generally falls from the sky in droplets rather than flakes! :) We got about 6 inches by the end of the day yesterday. As I look outside I see it is trying to snow again this morning! I love the snow, but I sure am thankful it held off until Sunday when we were settled in and ready to enjoy it!

Hooray for kind friends and family! And for your new place! And for the snow, of which I am jealous. We have a skiff here, but we still managed to eak out some sledding this morning. xoxo
