From left, Soraya Hobart, 8, Tim Hobart and Tyler Hobart, 10, work together to drag a Christmas tree along Lakeway Drive in Bellingham on Sunday, December 14, 2008. The Hobart family was planning on going to a tree farm on Sunday to cut down a tree for Christmas but decided that the road conditions were too bad to drive. Instead, their pulled a sled from their house to the Fred Meyer store on Lakeway, bought a tree there, then dragged it back. More snow and winter storms are expected throughout the week.

Matt Read, left, and Kristine Kippley of Bozeman, Mont. use a sled to drag groceries to Read's parents' home via the trail system behind Barkley Village in Bellingham on Monday, December 22, 2008. Along with many other shoppers, the couple decided to hike along the trails rather than drive on the snow-covered streets. More snowfall and winter storm conditions are scheduled throughout the week, with the possibility of Bellingham's first white Christmas since 1990.
