Today we attended the shortest Mass I think I have ever been too. We went to 8am Mass because Katya woke up early (we usually go to 10am) and we got there about 5-10mins late (we forgot we had to switch the car seat from the Saturn back to the Jeep). Father John was finishing up the Gospel reading when we arrived! Oops. There were about 8 other people, then a couple more showed up after us. Father John did a solo service (no helpers, not even a person to serve the wine) and it was a total of 30mins long. We noticed when we left that the only people who came all arrived in 4-wheel drive vehicles. We ran to Fred Myer after church to get bread and milk since we were already out. The Jeep did great with cautious driving; it was fun getting to really use our vehicles capabilities. Craig drove on the way there and I drove home to share the fun:0)
We got 8 inches of snow yesterday! That is a lot for us here and it sure is pretty. A layer of snow did freeze on top last night but it was pretty easy to break through. There was a little bit of freezing rain this morning and possibly more on the way. It looks like our drive to Seattle is going to be a bit treacherous. Keep us in your prayers! Craig got called off his lunch shift today as well and there is a chance he won't work tomorrow night either. We are tempted to leave tomorrow for Seattle if that is the case but we shall see. Craig does have some work to do at the lab before we leave town. More about an early Christmas present for Katya later today...
