Portland Snow Day ❄

Portland had a record snow fall this week, with up to 15 inches in some areas. It felt like a completely different world. portland snowday_0005portland snowday_0007We were without power the first day, so we adventured out to stock up on food.

We pulled out all the blankets and candles in the house and hoped for the best. We were about the eat cereal for dinner, but I had a major craving for Thai food. Zach jokingly checked to see if anywhere was delivering , and Postmates was! It took two hours, but it was totally worth it. For dessert we had candle s’mores, which might just be my new favorite thing. Just as we were crawling into bed with our hats and gloves on, the power came back on! It made me sooo grateful for a hot shower and a functioning heater. portland snowday_0003What’s your favorite thing to do on a snow day? xoxo
