So the day after Thanksgiving I drover over to Silverdale to go shopping with the women like we do every year. This year it was very cold out and pretty frosty at 7 in the morning! My mom called me when I was in Federal Way and started crying on the phone. She scared me so bad on the phone because she told me the girls (my cousins Melissa, Jaime, Janae and Erica) got in an accident and rolled the suburban! I got so scared I took my foot off the gas pedal (good timing for the phone call because there was a speed trap and I was speeding). So anway, my mom then tells me she will see me at the mall at the time she said she would be there. I didn't understand this since she said the girls just got in an accident so I called her back after she calmed down some. So after talking to people every 5 mintues and waiting at the mall for over an hour, everyone finally got to the mall. The girls had hit a patch of ice on the road. They fish tailed alittle in the road and then skidded to a stop on the side of the ride, on an embankment, then the suburban fell on its side. So they didn't really roll the car but it was still pretty scary all in all. The girls are all ok, thank God! So my uncles had to wait until 11am for the two truck to come. They then called us because Karen had the keys and had to get to the ferry in 30 minutes, it took us 20 mintues to find her since Jim had her phone. She hurried down to the ferry and missed it and then had to go back to my Grandma's because Jaime had accidentally taken Dean's keys and he had to be at work. So there was only 8 of us at lunch, we had to sit at different tables because we didn't want to wait an hour for lunch so shopping was definately not the same as normal. It was still so nice to see Melissa and Janae since they are away at school. Great to catch up with the newleywed Jaime also.
So the Saturday after Thanksgiving was the 100th Apple Cup and the COUGARS WON!!!! That is right...Huskies lost all!!! HA HA HA!!!! It was a really great game and very interesting. I again was so tired after such a busy weekend but I was still super excited that the Cougs won! Below is a photo of a house divided, Ray's Brother Randy and mom Rhonda. Randy and I are the big Cougar fans of the family!
We got a little bit of snow last weekend. Enough to get me super excited when I got out of bed and everything was white. It started snowing really hard for a couple of hours and then all melted away by the rain. Now it has been flooding everywhere. Rhonda's basement, where Randy and Shawna are living right now had 3-4 inches of water. Centralia was totally covered in water and I-5 was closed for days. I did get a few photos while it was snowing. Enjoy!
