Christmas 2008 certainly was a surprise! The Pacific Northwest was hit by major snow and ice and it disrupted everything! Kaeli and I were to have spent Christmas in Portland, but the roads were horrible and trains weren't running. We rustled up an IKEA tree and some ornaments from the basement, and let Santa know we were stuck in Tacoma. And he came through! We had a nice couple of days together.
We were finally able to take the train to Portland on New Year's Eve, and Santa paid a second visit to us there. We had a marvelous time with NaiNai and YeYe, finally having a delayed Christmas with them.
NaiNai, Kaeli and MaMa took the train back to Coma together. NaiNai was to spend a week with us, but ended up staying longer when the PNW was hit by heavy rain and flooding and again the trains stopped running. We were thrilled to have her extra days!!!
