Snowed In

It has been a very busy past couple of weeks. With all the Christmas concerts, holiday parties and what not, I haven't had a chance to slow down and write. Today was another crazy day - wrapping presents, school parties, packing, cleaning house, delivering gifts & treats to friends and neighbors. Remarkably I had most everything done (except for the spotless clean house - as if!?) and had the kids piled in the Expedition shortly after they got home from school. We drove a short distance down the road to fill up with gas. While Rob was in paying, the blizzard hit. We knew it was coming, but it was a few hours earlier than expected. We drove to the freeway and decided to drive to the next exit just to get the lay of the land. It was awful! A total white-out - couldn't see a thing. So we went to McDonald's, grabbed an early dinner, stopped by the library to pick up some movies and came back home. Rob's upstairs watching "Fred Claus" with the kids, and I am having some down time at the computer. I sincerely hope the weather gets better so we can travel tomorrow. We need to get Cameron (my oldest) on an airplane so he can get to Vegas to spend Christmas with his dad (and the amazing snow there - who would've thought?!) Anyways, we are all praying hard that we'll make it to SLC this weekend! In case I don't get the chance to blog again before the special day - MERRY CHRISTMAS!
