First Snow


This morning we woke up to the sky dumping snow over the city. Big fat flakes falling slowly. When we were getting ready to move here, we were told that it stays warm all year long. I bought shorts and tank tops like they were going out of style. And I even bought Jackson little shorts and sandals. We wont need them now. Over the last few weeks it has gotten colder and colder. This morning it is 4 degrees Celsius. It's ok because it kind of reminds me of home. I feel like this winter will actually be comforting to me. Here are a few pictures of our first snow in Japan from our back balcony.

That is so cool Emily! I love snow! :)

That is funny that you have extra shorts and sandals! Hey, there is a cool kids consignment shop in Elma that you could bring them to when you come home! (if you don't think you'll want to keep them) We could go together if you wanted! :)

I must say the snow pictures are, well, underwhelming. It just looks like Grays Harbor overcast, but I will take your word for it.
